One of the most famous aspects of the 2.x era was the Tight integration with Trimble's SketchUp. The OpenStudio SketchUp Plug-in allowed modelers to draw 3D spaces, match surfaces, and intersect geometry visually rather than doing it mathematically. In version 2.9.1, the plugin was tightly wedded to SketchUp 2017. SketchUp Community 3. The Measures Framework
Before focusing on version 2.9.1, it’s crucial to understand the platform. OpenStudio is an open-source software development kit (SDK) for building energy analysis. It provides a graphical interface (the SketchUp Plug-in) and a robust set of Ruby bindings/APIs that sit atop the simulation engine (version 9.3.0, specifically for this release).
