About this tool
Compare two IFC model versions to find every added, removed, and modified element. The diff uses GlobalId — the unique identifier every IFC element carries — so renaming or moving elements in a file does not create false positives.
Key features
- GlobalId-based element matching — no false positives
- Detects added, removed, and modified elements
- 3D visualisation with colour-coded diff highlights
- Sortable and filterable change list
- Export to CSV for Excel or project tools
- Supports IFC2x3 and IFC4 — no file upload
