I am trialling forma Design in Revit. Specify Coordinates at point is one of the only automation options in Revit, it moves the underlying point beneath your files whilst you continue to work with your elevations static within the view crops.

Currently I bring in the Forma Site scenario data. Specify coordinates at point up to the Forma scenario IFC or whatever file type it is. Remove the Forma > reimport the Forma. 

Am I missing some step like resynchronize the Forma import or link so it repositions in the correct location or import > relocate command > remove > reimport?

 

Forma, Revit, 2027, Scenario, specify coordinates at point

Hi n_mulconray - thanks so much for reaching out. It's great to hear you are testing this workflow. Can I confirm some details so we can investigate. You have started with a revit file and connected to a scenario - can you confirm was the Revit files geolocated, and how it was geolocated? Is there any geometry in the Revit file? Are you trying to acquire the coordinate's from the site design model? Did you order any contextual data?

 

Thanks in advance for this information which will help diagnose this issue. Caoimhe

Hi,

So i set the geolocation first or during a new scenario creation. i used the map to browse to the correct location in birdsville australia. This is copernicus for oceania terrain. the other marketplace terrains are far worse, unusable. yes there is geometry in the revit file. if you work in an office architects need extensive elements built-into the project template. i did not acquire ccoords, yes as above i ordered contextual data> terrain> copernicus
