How tediuous is creating locations manually once you import your project heirarchy via excel import. Pick a room, apply to the uploaded PDF and draw your blue box... There's gotta be a way to automate this especially when there are THOUSANDS of locations to setup... enough said.
What if in Revit you could have the ROOM SPACES drive the location creation in Field - automating the manual process.
This could also be an opportunity to upload your 2D plans to B3F right from Revit so it can eliminate the pdf upload process...
The workflow would be - setup your room spaces in Revit, export to Field and once it is in B3F, goto library and click on generate room locations.
Obviously there would be upstream and downstream steps as this does not address how a project will be organized within Field. But typically we create a location per room...
Does this make sense?
