Classifying Objects

In SketchUp, you use the Classifier to embed data into groups or components. Adding this data can help you track and manage every aspect of your model. You can also use this data in Building Information Modeling (BIM), a common workflow used when creating realistic models that incorporate real world, practical data.

With SketchUp’s Classifier you can:

  • Count, measure, dimension, and tag objects.
  • Generate reports.
  • Analyze your model for meaningful data like energy performance and cost.
  • Export objects into other formats or programs.
