A SKP file, which stands for SketchUp file, is a proprietary 3D modeling format primarily used by SketchUp, a popular software application developed by Trimble Inc. It serves as the native file format for storing and exchanging 3D models created within SketchUp. SketchUp is widely employed in various fields such as architecture, interior design, engineering, and video game development due to its user-friendly interface and versatile tools. The SKP file contains detailed information about the geometry, textures, materials, and other components that constitute the 3D model, enabling users to save and share their creations seamlessly.

One of the significant advantages of SKP files is their compact size, making them relatively easy to handle and share over the internet or through emails. Additionally, the format allows users to maintain the integrity of their designs, as SKP files preserve the hierarchy and organization of the model's elements. Beyond SketchUp, SKP files can be exported to other formats like DWG, DAE, or STL, broadening their compatibility with other 3D modeling software and applications.

Due to its widespread use and compatibility, the SKP file format has become an industry standard in 3D modeling and design. Its flexibility, combined with SketchUp's growing popularity, has made it a favored choice for professionals and enthusiasts seeking efficient and accessible tools for creating and sharing their 3D projects.

An OBJ file is a widely used file format in 3D computer graphics that serves as a standard representation for 3D models. It stands for "Object" and was originally developed by Wavefront Technologies. OBJ files store geometric data, such as vertex positions, normals, texture coordinates, and face information, describing the surface of a 3D object. This data is presented in plain text, making OBJ files human-readable and easy to exchange between various 3D modeling and rendering software.

The structure of an OBJ file is based on vertices (points in 3D space), which form the building blocks of the 3D model's shape. These vertices are organized into faces, typically triangles or quads, representing the surfaces of the object. Alongside the geometric data, OBJ files can also include material information, enabling the application of textures and shaders to the 3D model, providing it with color, reflectivity, and other visual properties.

Due to its simplicity and compatibility across different software platforms, the OBJ file format has become a popular choice for sharing 3D models. However, being a relatively basic format, OBJ files may not support complex features found in more advanced formats like animation data or high-level shader definitions. Despite this limitation, OBJ remains a widely adopted format in various industries, including gaming, animation, virtual reality, and 3D printing.

Information for converting from SKP to OBJ

Your SKP file will be converted to a OBJ file using our unified 3D model and mesh conversion tool. Our SKP 3D tool performs accurate conversions of 3D elements such as vertices, faces, normals and relevant material information. As SKP supports color materials and OBJ does not, our tool will not attempt to transfer any color information, your final 3D model will contain geometry data only.
