IFC Dictionary
The BIMserver.center dictionary contains the documents corresponding to the codes assigned to the different entities that export the applications integrated in the platform and that are part of the projects hosted on the platform. To integrate new applications, the dictionary can be used to identify the format and parameters with which these entities are exported and to read them correctly from the applications. Furthermore, developers are assisted in the selection of the IFC entities to be read by providing information on their use: which applications export them, how many contributions include them, total number of appearances on the platform, etc.
To consult the dictionary, click on a code and a window will appear with all its associated documentation.
