I have a georeferenzed model that shows correctly when i click on 'show 3d world context'.for google earth When I then use the feature to create a .kmz file for google earth the model (extremely dark) will be placed correctly on the x and y axis but the correct orthogonal height shows the model to high in the air. In my case the true orthoganl height is about 560m MSL. Therefore the model floats in the sky. When i set the height in the IFC Model to 1m (0m) it will be shown correctly on google earth. I suppose the map in google earth is basically a flat image and the heights are stored in attributes?
So finally it might not be a real error, but for the sake of visualization it might be helpful to set the heigt to 0m for the .kmz export
The image shows the IFC model with a false orthogonal height of 2m. Google earth indicate the correct height when marking a point.
