Just curious, because this forum has an international audience.
Is the Basic BIM IDM (A set of rules regarding data quality of IFC) being used in your native country?
Because there are many languages available for download
You can download it here.
We do check every ifc in the regard of the most of the booklet tiles, but I never had such a cool slide. Most of the time when I would like to tell Architects what I do expect from their modell I write it down. Such a booklet seam much more understandable for newbies IMHO.
cheers bernd
BTW: I am in Switzerland and had a look at the German one.
The objects should not have geometrical problems. See facet meeting point.
The Australian NatSpec and other similar bodies and government contracts have been increasingly specifying stringent IFC data requirements. At work, we audit to an incredible amount of detail (including systems, geometry types, FM data, material types, associated documents, etc) and do a lot of very bespoke IFC post-processing where the data from proprietary apps fall short. We don't have an "IDM" but it's specified in execution plans, and we do have IDSes.
Given that IDSes aren't "officially released" I'd be surprised if other people say they have IDSes too - I'd expect only a minority of users right now.
Here most is written down in gherkin and tested with bimtester.
How do you create and view ids?
@bernd right now I create programmatically with IfcTester (part of IfcOpenShell) and test with IfcTester CLI or via BlenderBIM Add-on viewer. There is also a webapp, it's hosted with read-only capabilities on https://blenderbim.org/ifctester
My bimtester has not been rebased on ifcopenshell one for long time. I need to spend time to get my improvements merged into ifcos and can start to move to ids workflow ...
Sorry for being offtopic.

Does it mean your create the ids files with python and ifcos as shown here ?... https://github.com/IfcOpenShell/IfcOpenShell/blob/v0.7.0/src/ifctester/README.md#how-to-use-it
Is there some tutorial or forum topic which shows all the workflow?
Indeed I create the IDS files with Python as shown there. You can see every single supported permutation here: https://github.com/IfcOpenShell/IfcOpenShell/tree/v0.7.0/src/ifctester/test
No tutorial or topic unfortunately, this is all very recent development.
