Good morning.

Good morning. Can anyone help me? I can’t properly insert these buildings from dynamo into Revit. I imported an openstreetmap into dynamo using Elk. it’s my first time using dynamo.

Thank you. Can you point me to the link? I do not display the model correctly in Revit. I don’t know how to export it correctly.

Alternatively you can download OpenStreetMap and terrain data as DXF here:

> **[Download 3D City Models of Worldwide (OpenStreetMap) as CityGML, OBJ, STL and...](https://3dcityloader.com/en/city/worldwide)**
>
> 3DCityLoader helps you to convert and download custom 3D City Models of Worldwide (OpenStreetMap) in formats you need for 3D printing, rendering and more.

The created files can be easily imported into Revit
