# IFC to Excel Conversion

## Business Case

### Problem Statement
IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) is the open BIM standard, but:
- Reading IFC requires specialized software
- Property extraction needs programming knowledge
- Batch processing is manual and time-consuming
- Integration with analytics tools is complex

### Solution
IfcExporter.exe converts IFC files to structured Excel databases, making BIM data accessible for analysis, validation, and reporting.

### Business Value
- **Open standard** - Process any IFC file (2x3, 4x, 4.3)
- **No licenses** - Works offline without BIM software
- **Data extraction** - All properties, quantities, materials
- **3D geometry** - Export to Collada DAE format
- **Pipeline ready** - Integrate with ETL workflows

## Technical Implementation

### CLI Syntax
```bash
IfcExporter.exe <input_ifc> [options]
```

### Supported IFC Versions
| Version | Schema | Description |
|---------|--------|-------------|
| IFC2x3 | MVD | Most common exchange format |
| IFC4 | ADD1 | Enhanced properties |
| IFC4x1 | Alignment | Infrastructure support |
| IFC4x3 | Latest | Full infrastructure |

### Output Formats
| Output | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `.xlsx` | Excel database with elements and properties |
| `.dae` | Collada 3D geometry with matching IDs |

### Options
| Option | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `bbox` | Include element bounding boxes |
| `-no-xlsx` | Skip Excel export |
| `-no-collada` | Skip 3D geometry export |

### Examples

```bash
# Basic conversion (XLSX + DAE)
IfcExporter.exe "C:\Models\Building.ifc"

# With bounding boxes
IfcExporter.exe "C:\Models\Building.ifc" bbox

# Excel only (no 3D geometry)
IfcExporter.exe "C:\Models\Building.ifc" -no-collada

# Batch processing
for /R "C:\IFC_Models" %f in (*.ifc) do IfcExporter.exe "%f" bbox
```
