Workflows based in openBIM enable interoperability and collaboration among different software applications and stakeholders in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry using neutral, industry-standard formats. These workflows center around Industry Foundation Classes (IFC), an open and neutral data format for BIM. In a continuing series, you'll learn about the Autodesk strategy around IFC and openBIM, the newest and future capabilities of Revit, and other AEC products supporting openBIM workflows. And you’ll learn how these standards are being used in defining the AEC Data Model API and granular cloud data workflows. As a bonus, we'll also offer some insights for Revit users to optimize their IFC usage.
