Import IFC

Instructions for Use

Import BIM data in IFC format as model dataest and save model dataset to the specified datasource. Currently, the compatibility of the tool is as follows:

  • Format version compatibility: IFC2x-add1 _ longform, IFC2x2 _ ADD1, IFC2x3 _ TC1, IFC4 _ ADD2 _ TC1, IFC4x1, IFC4x2, IFC4x3 _ ADD2, IFC4x3 _ RC1

Parameter Description

Parameter Name Parameter Description Parameter Type
File Path: Input source IFC data. String
Target Datasource
(Optional)
Select the datasource where the result model dataset is stored.
If Target Datasource and Datasource Connection Info are set at the same time, only Target Datasource is valid. Please set it properly as required.
Datasource
Datasource Connection Info
(Optional)
Select or create datasource in the specified path to store the result model dataset.
When selecting the existing datasource, it will prompt "The file already exists, do you want to append the write".
If Target Datasource and Datasource Connection Info are set at the same time, only Target Datasource is valid. Please set it properly as required. With the datasource connection mode, the data import task will be executed in the child process.
Note: You cannot use the same connection information for multiple imports.
String
Result Dataset Name
(Optional)
Sets the name of the result model dataset. If blank, the source IFC data name is used as the result model dataset name. String
Import Mode
(Optional)
Sets the import mode when data with the same name exists, including None, Append, and Overwrite. ModelImportMode
Split by Family (Optional) Sets whether to split by family.
When checked, the source IFC model is imported as a different dataset depending on the family type.
Boolean
X
(Optional)
Enter an X coordinate value or a longitude value. X, Y, and Z to collectively determine the geographic reference origin of the model.
Georeference Origin The GCS (Projected Coordinate System or Geographic Coordinate System) used to determine the origin of the data in the model.
Double
Y
(Optional)
Enter the Y coordinate or latitude value of the geographic origin of reference Double
Z
(Optional)
Enter the Z coordinate or height value of the geographic origin point Double
Rotation Angle
(Optional)
Set model's angle around the data origin, which is counterclockwise from true north. Double
Coordinate System Settings
(Optional)
Sets the target coordinate system information for result data. See the Projected Coordinate System Settings for the specific operation steps. Integer
