AVEVA E3D Model Conversion
The conversion process from E3D projects to S3D projects comprises three stages:
 
Design Project stage
Create the correct model and catalogues in E3D.
Conversion stage
Create mapping data in AVEVA E3D Model Conversion.
Post Conversion stage
Carry out post conversion tasks in E3D.
The conversion process is not totally automatic, large parts of the work will still depends on skills and experience. With the mapping data being the most important task to be carried out. The quality of the converted project depends on the quality of the mapping and the current limitations of both E3D and S3D. Refer to Limitations for further information.
Conversion can be carried out on three levels:
 
Low
Exports only the volumetric geometry (graphics) from the E3D project to S3D.
Medium
Exports the volumetric geometry for each element along with the hierarchy from the E3D project to the S3D project.
High
Exports the full model from the E3D project which then displays and behaves in S3D as if it was created in the software.
