How to open the IFC model: it is a single .ifc file, no archive to unpack. Units: metres. The model contains buildings only (IfcBuilding, bodies extruded to their height); roads, water and terrain are not in IFC — order DXF/DWG for those. Opens in Bonsai (BlenderBIM), FreeCAD, Revit, ArchiCAD, BIMvision. If the screen looks empty after opening, the file is not empty: use Zoom to fit.
