About IFC
Map of Samoa in IFC: 14 467 buildings — in the WGS 84 coordinate system, units are meters.
Which layers are in the file
This file for the selected area contains:
- Buildings
What the file carries
The IFC file for Samoa: features come as a single stream, without named layers, OpenStreetMap tags are not kept — geometry and styling remain, object heights are carried.
What this file will not contain
In IFC for Samoa the following will not travel: 1 765 km of roads, 78 water features, 591 km² of green areas, 2 423 points of interest — the format prints solid volumes extruded from building outlines, and other layers are not part of the model.
File size
The expected size of the IFC file for Samoa is about 199 KB; the exact size depends on the chosen layers and area.
IFC file passport
Estimated from the place's OSM data; exact figures are in the file after the build.
- Triangles in the model (estimated): ≈ 173 616
- Model size at 1:5 000: 39 277 × 22 975 mm
Losses: nothing to lose.
Build recipe: IFC4: each building is an IfcBuilding with a solid body and an OSM property set (type, height, levels, name, address); frame 196 × 115 km.

How to use IFC for Samoa
- Autodesk Revit — Insert → Link IFC, so the surroundings stay an underlay and do not mix with your own model.
- ArchiCAD — File → Interoperability → Merge IFC; at import, choose a translation profile that preserves object properties.
- BlenderBIM or Bonsai (free) — open the file and inspect the IFC tree, the geometry and the property sets, without buying anything.
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.
