Although the length unit in IFC file is millimeter, it seems like the converted shapes' coordinates are in meters.

Correct. That is intended

Hi, thank you for the info. I assume that dividing the lengths with getLengthInMeterFactor() would solve this issue then.

It makes sense to have the geometry in a consistent length, area, volume unit (m, m², m³).
Of course you can mulitply it with some factors, but that will probably cause issues.
