OG exemplary drawing
 
1. A method of processing digitalized drawing data by a computer, the method comprising:
providing a digitalized drawing having a line ID (S10);
splitting the line ID into a plurality of topologies, which are smallest units that are mutually exclusive and do not overlap each other (S20);
generating a pipe system network (PSN) by recombining the plurality of topologies, wherein the plurality of topologies are recombined such that a start point and an end point of the PSN are each independently Equipment, Branch or Header (S30); and
generating a path item (PI) by arranging internal objects on the digitalized drawing existing between the start point and the end point of the pipe system network (PSN) and adding information usable in a subsequent process (S40),
wherein in the step (S10), the line ID comprises fluid code (FC), piping material class (PMC), sequence number (SN), unit number (UN), insulation code (IC), or a combination thereof, and
wherein the step (S20) comprises:
generating a pipe system (PS) by combining the fluid code (FC) and the piping material class (PMC) (S20-1);
generating a pipe line (PL) by combining the pipe system (PS) and the sequence number (SN) (S20-2);
generating a topology by combining the pipe line (PL) and the insulation code (IC) and classifying the resultant by the unit number (UN) (S20-3);
adding a sub-type tag to the topology generated in the step (S20-3) according to a predetermined standard (S20-4); and
classifying the topology generated in the step (S20-4) as main or branch according to a predetermined standard (S20-5).
