Release notes for ArcGIS GeoBIM October 2025

The updates below have been made in ArcGIS GeoBIM.

General

General product updates include the following:

• ArcGIS GeoBIM now supports GBR, DEU, JPN, CAN, and IND regions in Autodesk Construction Cloud.

Enhancements and bug fixes

The following enhancements and bug fixes were made:

• The Add Document Models tool output now has improved alignment for 3D objects and supports better editing user experience since models are now anchored based on the geometric center of the model instead of Revit's internal origin.
• Web Mercator is now supported as an input coordinate system for the Add Document Models tool without requiring a custom basemap to simplify overall experience.
• The simplification algorithm for the Add Document Models tool has been optimized to deliver better performance in the web scene viewer while keeping visual accuracy higher in the output model.
• Error handling was improved for 3D service creation processes. The user interface now provides clearer feedback and helps with troubleshooting.
• The Editor widget now supports creating freehand shapes for polyline and polygon features. The widget also supports creating rectangular and circular geometries for polygon features.
• Unsaved features can be analyzed in the Editor widget. Hover over the unsaved feature listed in the Editor to highlight it in the map, click the Zoom to button to maneuver to the feature's extents, or click the Discard feature to remove it.
• The Export tool in the Table widget now supports exporting to SHP, FGDB, and KML formats. The Export tool will require some additional configuration in the ArcGIS GeoBIM project feature layer (see known issues below).

Known issues

See the ArcGIS GeoBIM Esri Community page for a complete list of known issues and status. The following are the known issues in this release:

• The Autodesk Viewer widget may display an error message if a model is rendered in the viewer and the app remains open past the initial token expiry time. This can also cause the ArcGIS GeoBIM app to stop working. To work around this do the following:
  • Refresh the page. This will return the Autodesk Viewer and ArcGIS GeoBIM app back into a working state.
• Building scene layers cannot be selected in the Link Rules table menu. To work around this do the following:
  • Select the Link Rules display on the Links page, then select the building scene layer component in the map. This will update the Link Rules table with the selected layer.
• A runtime error appears when you open the project web scene in Scene Viewer due to an incomplete configuration in the schema. To work around this do the following:
  • Close the error dialog and save the web scene in Scene Viewer. This will remove the error message.
• The issue dot sometimes may not appear in the scene view when creating a new issue in the ArcGIS GeoBIM app. The issue point can still be placed in the scene and the new issue can be created and uploaded to the source BIM project.
• The Export tool in the Table widget no longer displays by default in new ArcGIS GeoBIM projects. To work around this do the following:
  • Enable the Export data setting in the General tab of your ArcGIS GeoBIM project feature layer.
