Hello,

I am trying to get data from a IFC File into a Postgresql Database.

Preferentially I would like to work with a java code which reads the IFC File and writes the attributes in a Database similar to the ODBC Export from Revit. But I am not able to do that.

 

 

Does anybody have any suggestions?

Thank you in advance.

Hi @javastudent,

Have you tried using the IFC Reader to read your IFC file in FME Workbench? Here are some articles demonstrating the use of the IFC Reader:

After reading in your IFC file, you would eventually write out to your PostgreSQL Database using the PostgreSQL Writer. If you are new to working with databases in FME, check out the Getting Started with PostGIS and PostgreSQL tutorial series for how to work with PostgreSQL databases using FME.
