The project is is abbreviated as: TBW (The BIM Whale).
The aim of TBW is to:
I: Introduce and explain the basics of IFC II: Teach people how to parse an IFC file and retrieve basic information
In more specific terms, the goal of this project is to:
A: Provide a simple and fast IFC parser B: Provide learning resources (documentation, videos, power points) to people within the AEC industry
To clarify, the focus with The BIM Whale Project is to educate people. The code itself and its functionality are secondary.
TBW consists of three different parts:
A JavaScript module | BIMWHALE.js
Documentation | This website
A SaaS app | www.bimvalen.se
