Overview This document outlines the process of exporting data from Giraffe, with a particular emphasis on the workflow from Giraffe to Rhino. While some basic knowledge of Python is helpful, the necessary scripts have been created and provided by the Giraffe team to streamline the process.
Giraffe to Rhino projected - Python script
giraffeToRhino_projected.py.zip
The file ‘giraffeToRhino_projected’ accounts for XY Euler/Cartesian coordinates
Giraffe to Rhino - Python script
The file ‘giraffeToRhino’ accounts for longitude and latitude coordinates
Speckle - Interoperability with Almost Anything!
Access the export menu via the main menu (☰) → Export
<aside> 💡 Note: To export data, you must be working in a saved project. See Create projects (with boundaries) for more info.

For Rhino compatibility, we recommend exporting as a GeoJSON (in longitude, latitude or the project defined coordinate transform)
In the command line, type ‘RunPythonScript’
Select and open the relevant script that you downloaded at the start of this guide
