Auto calibration of rooms from BIM Models

Can we use a BIM model (IFC?) to auto-calibrate room areas and names on Field View?  Given the push towards BIM (and the use of 3D models) having to manually calibrate rooms is such an old fashioned way of doing things.  If we were able to auto-calibrate from a 3D model (that we can store in Viewpoint for Projects…) it would instantly name the rooms and calibrate the areas.  This would save an enormous amount of administration time.
