You can ignore sea level.

This is just a way to relate building heights to aerial survey data.

If you are making things up from scratch, then who cares until the ocean floods in?

iconplus:

If at some point you need to reference Sea Level, you can go to Preferences > Working Units & Levels > Reference Levels to create another reference height.

You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.
