New guide for open BIM in Revit

Autodesk has released a guide for working with "open BIM" IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) files in Revit.

The guide describes IFCs as follows: 

The Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) are an open standard for the exchange of building data models used in building design and construction across different software. They are used to exchange information within a project team and between software applications used in design, construction, procurement, maintenance, and operation. Current IFC Model View Definitions primarily support 3D geometry and property data. If exchange of 2D information, such as plan views and annotations, is important, Revit and coordination tools such as Autodesk BIM 360 which support the native file format should be preferred.
