BMP Windows Bitmap Image

This file format is a type of image file designed for storing digital images on Windows systems. It's known for its simple structure, universal compatibility, and ability to maintain pixel-perfect accuracy, but also for its lack of compression and advanced features.

Key Features of BMP

  • Uncompressed Accuracy:

    BMP files preserve every pixel which make them ideal for medical imaging, scientific data visualization, and applications requiring pixel-level precision.
  • Simple Structure:

    Straightforward structure makes BMP files readily editable in basic image editing programs. Longstanding format ensures compatibility with a vast range of computer software and systems.
  • Large File Sizes:

    Uncompressed nature leads to bigger BMP files, impacting storage efficiency and potentially slowing down web loading.

Autoconverter and Automesher Application empower you to transform BMP bitmap images into various 3D formats, including STL, 3DS, OBJ, 3DM, and numerous others. These versatile tools additionally support conversion with other standard image formats. Start converting your BMP images today - download a free trial to experience seamless 2D-to-3D conversion!


IFC Industrial Foundation Classes File

It is an open, ISO-certified standard (ISO 16739) specifically designed for the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry. As a vendor-neutral format, IFC enables seamless data exchange and interoperability between different software applications, eliminating proprietary barriers in collaborative projects.

IFC Format Capabilities

The IFC format can store comprehensive project data for AEC workflows, including but not limited to:

  • Geometry:

    The IFC standard captures detailed 3D representations through multiple entity types including solids, surfaces, curves, and point clouds.
  • Units:

    Each model component specifies its measurement system (meters, inches, degrees, or radians) for precise interpretation.
  • Materials:

    IFC's material system controls visual properties through RGBA values (0-1 range) for accurate color and transparency settings.
  • Instances:

    Through IFC's mapping system, identical geometries can be referenced multiple times, optimizing storage and performance.
  • Structure:

    IFC organizes projects hierarchically using named components with unique identifiers, enabling complex project management.
  • BIM:

    As a BIM-native (Building Information Modeling) format, IFC stores building information like properties, constraints, and relationships alongside geometry.

IFC File Conversion

Autoconverter and Automesher Application support IFC format, allowing you to import and export IFC models seamlessly. You can edit custom properties of IFC geometries and convert them to various 3D file formats. However please note that some IFC-specific features might not be fully supported in other formats and could be lost during conversion.
