`ifcopenshell.geom`¶

Geometry processing and analysis

IFC may define geometry explicitly (such as meshes) or implicitly (such as parametric extrusions). This module provides methods to extract geometric definitions in IFC into explicitly tessellated triangles or OpenCASCADE Breps for further processing.

This is typically needed when writing software to visualise or analyse geometry. See also ifcopenshell.util.shape for deriving quantities.
