BIMGIS InteropLibs

A library for reading, processing and output of various data formats from the fields of GIS BIM and CAD.

Structure of the Solution

The structure is as follows:

• BimGisCad (Author: Enrico Romanschek):
  • Library for geometric calculations; will be discontinued!
  • Note: currently still used in program code; need to be replaced by "topology-relations" or custom classes & functions in the future
• BIMGISInteropLibs:
  • "Heart" of the Solution, here lies the logic for all software components
  • different folders are available for different functionalities
  • files for different applications can be located in one folder if necessary
  • Note: no functionalities from / for Revit are stored here! (the RevitAPI is also not implemented).

Revit / City2RVT

• City2RVT
  • all logic that is needed for the City2BIM plugin & the RevitAPI is stored here
  • Basic structure (most important folders):
    • Builder -> Logic for creating objects / elements
    • Calc -> Calculation logic
    • GUI -> each addin has its own UIs which are stored here
    • UI_PlugIn.cs -> in this file the whole application is initialized (important if another function should be added)
• Setup_Revit_20XY -> small projects to create the setup.exe to install the City2BIM addin

IfcTerrain

• GuiHandler -> here the different "user controllers" are managed (these can be used by Revit as well as IfcTerrain)

• IfcTerrainGUI -> graphical user interface to configure conversion

• IfcTerrainCommand -> command line console application to read configuration files (*.json; which is generated by IfcTerrainGUI)
