Local upload and export of single IFC files

The upload of IFC files to dRofus enables the user to upload content from an IFC file to a dRofus database. The requirement for this to happen, is to have a common key between the IFC content and the dRofus database. Which key to use can be defined by the user. SimilarilySimilarly, content from a dRofus database can be used to update an IFC file. When an IFC file is loaded it can also be viewed by the user in the client viewer if it contains geometrical data.

viewing

Through the dRofus web IFC setup, any user with full model modelserver permission can upload IFC models for viewing in 2D or 3D. Any user with view read permission to the model modelserver can thereafter see the model when they are logged in to that project in the dRofus web, without having to do anything to set it up

If  the user wants to upload one file to view without others having access to it, that should be done in the dRofus client.
