Revit ADN Mesh Data Custom Exporter to JSON

By Jeremy Tammik.

I implemented a new Revit 2014 custom exporter to JSON generating the ADN mesh data to drive Philippe Leefsma's online 3D WebGL viewer.

This is obviously mainly of interest to Revit API aficionados, though some of the topics covered are completely generic cloud and mobile issues as well:

• ADN mesh data format
• Tetrahedron sample JSON data
• Little house and curved wall in JSON
• Custom exporter implementation and components
• Centroid and volume
• Export context implementation
• ADN mesh data class
• JSON serialisation

The post also mentions my most recent mountain hike to the Muttenhorn :-)

Revit model viewer for iOS

By Adam Nagy

On the AEC blog I've started writing a multi part post about creating a Revit AddIn that can store model geometry on a storage service and an iOS application that can access and display that geometry using OpenGL ES.
