Is Autodesk Building Systems compatible with third-party engineering applications? Which partners are working with Autodesk to provide this functionality?
Yes. By exporting to standard file formats, such as gbXML and ddXML, and taking advantage of the API available for Autodesk Building Systems, you can extract crucial engineering design data from Autodesk Building Systems 2007 for interoperability with third-party applications from industry leaders. Autodesk is working with industry leaders, including Trane, GeoPraxis, Elite, Wendes, and EastCoast CAD, to provide this functionality for engineering design analysis, cost estimating, and fabrication (some of these applications may not yet be available). Your existing third-party applications may be compatible with the current release of Autodesk Building Systems. Contact your independent software supplier for details.
