Open STEP Viewer visualizing a STEP model
Open STEP Viewer is the result of years of experience developing Open IFC Viewer and the ODA Platform. It incorporates the following ODA products:
- ODA STEP SDK provides low-level work with STEP models of various application protocols using the Standard Data Access Interface (SDAI) and geometry generation
- ODA Visualize provides high-quality visualization of complex 3D geometry
“The release of Open STEP Viewer is significant for a couple of reasons,” said Neil Peterson, ODA President. “A free, cross-platform STEP viewer, backed by a commitment from non-profit ODA, provides long-term security for end users. And for ODA it’s an important showcase of our emerging technology in the mechanical space.”
