SAM_gbXML is part of the SAM (Sustainable Analytical Model) Toolkit —
an open-source collection of tools designed to help engineers create, manage,
and process analytical building models for energy and environmental analysis.
This repository provides gbXML import and export utilities to enable interoperability between SAM analytical models and tools that use gbXML as a building information exchange format.
It supports translation between gbXML geometry and SAM analytical representations, with helper utilities for validation and geometry inspection.
Welcome — and let’s keep the open-source journey going. 🤝
- Import gbXML and translate gbXML geometry into SAM analytical objects
- Export SAM analytical models to gbXML
- Create and manipulate gbXML geometry programmatically
- Validate gbXML files and basic schema/geometry consistency
