It is possible that future releases of the NATSPEC BIM Properties Generator will expand on the content currently included in this release.
The following items may be considered for future releases:
- Include infrastructure objects from the IFC 4.3 ADD 2 release of the IFC schema.
- Assign properties from the sources of NATSPEC, BIM Forum and COBie to the mechanical,
electrical, hydraulic and fire services objects added in v 2.0.
- Provide further objects, to expand on those currently included, providing more granularity
of generic object types, such as various cladding types, roofing types, door types,
etc. and also looking at material variations of generic structural objects such as
concrete columns, steel columns, etc.
- Further development of the properties assigned to the source of NATSPEC Spec.
- Include properties from additional sources, such as BIM-MEP-AUS.
- Provide additional exports such as XML or Revit Shared Parameters.
- Provide GUIDS for properties.
- Provide a graphical interface for navigating and selecting objects.
- Provide a function to enable users to add their own properties to selected objects
as required before exporting them to a file.
