Hi,
I'm wondering how to export terrain and surrounding buildings geometry into a single file to get it in Revit in the coordinate system of my choice. I want to get an editable terrain in Revit and buildings geometry as Volumes families.
I did not find the right method throug the different ways to export from Spacemaker.

Hello Alexis!
Thank you so much for your great question!
I will try to give an explanation below. Not sure if you are aware, but we recently released a Revit add-in (still in beta) that I think might help you in this situation:
Hope this works - and please let us know if you need more guidance. As the Revit add-in is a new feature still in beta it would also be great to hear what you think, and even do a meeting to learn more.
Bon week-end!

Thank you for your reply.
But actually I'm trying to import data into an already georeferenced Revit file. I have to keep this coordinate system into my Revit project. And Revit does not allow switching from one coordinate system to another directly in the Manage tab as you suggest. So I need to be able to export from Spacemaker directly into my coordinate system defined in Revit.
I see. For now, you cannot select the coordinates you want with the Revit add-in, the exported project base point will be the same as in Spacemaker. We have noted down that this is something you would like to be able to do. All feedback on this feature is most welcomed, as we are developing it as we speak, so please tell us if there’s other things you would like to be able to do.
In the meantime, we think the following work around can help solve your issue.
Let us know if this doesn't help or if you have any further questions 🙂
Hi aguilhaumaud,
Until we have released the functionality that you are asking for there is a workaround that will do the trick for you. However, the process has a few more steps. I have attached a recipe and a short recording below showing the steps.
Download all layers, including the surrounding buildings
Terrain
The only thing that is not downloaded here is the terrain. That can be downloaded through these steps:
