The BuildingsAI DataExchange is designed to simplify the conversion of Autodesk® AutoCAD® Architecture designs into 3D Autodesk® Revit® models. This app extracts building data—including dimensions, meta-properties, and elements like walls, windows, doors, and floors—and exports it into JSON format, streamlining the transition to BIM workflows in the BuildingsAI platform.
With support for extracting data from multiple xrefs, this app provides an efficient solution to convert complex AutoCAD projects into Revit models, saving time and reducing manual work. Ideal for architects, engineers, and project managers looking to enhance collaboration and improve project outcomes through automated workflows.
Key Features:
- Automated Data Export: Extracts building components (walls, doors, windows, etc.) and their dimensions from AutoCAD Architecture drawings.
- JSON Export: Converts extracted data into JSON format for use in BuildingAI platform.
- Revit Model conversion: Seamlessly extracts AutoCAD data required to convert 3D Revit models, maintaining accuracy and data integrity.
- Xref Support: Handles projects with multiple xrefs, simplifying the process of working on large, complex designs.
- Time-Saving Automation: Eliminates manual rework, enabling faster conversions and more efficient BIM workflows.
This application is currently supported only on the Windows operating system.
