im pretty new to working with XML and COLLADA. I know how to inspect a XML File. But when using the commands that work on a XML File, i get strange results with a COLLADA File.
The COLLADA File is a Layout of an appartment and i just need the Values of the Walls and the resulting squaremeters.
Here is the actual layout:
- Problem: How do i find the right tags, that store these values?
- Problem: How do i extract them?
When trying to just display all the child nodes:
for elm in root.findall("./"):
print(elm.tag)
I get this result

Here is a part of the COLLADA File (original is way too long):
