BUSINESS SOLUTIONS

BIMer.IFC

Prepares IFC files for rendering in the BIMer.viewer. 3D view from IFC file format is translated into JSON format, so it can be rendered in our online viewer. Geometries, object properties and relations are extracted, so that the design data can be used in your app.

BIMer.storage

Set of connectors that allows you to use any kind of storage to store and retrieve your application data. Provides support for cloud storage, database storage and file system storage.

BIMer.viewer

Display 3D views of your designs on your website by embedding the BIMer.viewer in a web page or web application. Enable powerful tools that let your users manipulate the model, zoom in and out, control section cuts and explode assemblies in a browser.

BIMer.Viewer

The BIMer.Viewer is a WebGL-based, client-side JavaScript library for 3D model rendering. It allows you to view design models on the web prepared for rendering by the BIMer.IFC converter library.

WEB BASED

Displays 3D graphics in a web browser. No use of plug-ins required. No installation. Platform independent.

CUSTOM APPEARANCE

The Viewer comes with default settings. Developers can customise the viewer’s appearance using the BIMer.viewer API.

EVENT HANDLERS

You can override default viewer event handlers to customise the behaviour of the viewer in your application.

HEADLESS

Can be configured as a headless version without UI elements; only the 3D render canvas.

Features

3D navigation

Pan, rotate, first person and zoom in and zoom out.

Properties

Properties extracted from the original IFC file are displayed for the selected element.

Filtering

Filter out specific layers to show hidden constructions and elements.

Model browser

Model hierarchy tree is available for browsing once the model is loaded. Selected element highlights on the model and shows properties.

v.2
Screenshots

Take a screenshot of your design to share the view you see.

v.2
Markup

Use markup to pinpoint elements needing attention or being subject of a discussion.

The BIMer.viewer can only be used to view files converted by BIMer.IFC. You can access the information in the JSON files that our conversion library generates but we cannot ensure the proper display of the model if the file structure has been manipulated with.

BIMer.IFC

The BIMer.IFC converts the information stored in the IFC file to a format that can be consumed by the BIMer.viewer. The output is a set of JSON files that store extracted design data including object hierarchy, geometries and object properties. The library offers an option to create different-sized thumbnails from design files.

Features

File translation from IFC to JSON

Translates 3D views from IFC2x3, IFC2x3zipped or IFC4 file format into the JSON format, so that they can be rendered in the viewer.

v.2
Thumbnail generation

Creates thumbnails from design files for use in your app.

Geometries and model data extraction

Extracts design metadata, like object hierarchy trees, model views, and object properties, so you can use it in your app.
