Survey point origin

Anonymous — Fri, 09 Sep 2016 07:41:20 GMT

When modelling in Archicad we use the aboslute coordinate. When exporting to IFC we need to set this origin to a origin closer to the building. Is there a survey point in Archicad I can define?

Just to provide a bit of additional info:

the Survey Point Object is new in ARCHICAD 20. This capability was not available in previous ARCHICAD versions.
See the attached image for the location of the Survey Point object. It can be placed with the Object Tool.

Now there is also a clip about how the Survey Point works on the ARCHICAD YouTube Channel:
