Using Model#georeferenced? without opening the model

Developers Ruby API
1

Is there a way to find out if a model is geo-referenced without actually opening the model? Just by using the filename and somehow accessing the model attributes in the background?

I think I already know that this is not possible, but just wanted to ask in case anyone had any ideas.

Thanks,
Andrew

You posted this in the Ruby API category and since the API runs only while SketchUp is running and can access only the active model, the answer is clearly no. However you could write a standalone program using the C SDK. Hacking the proprietary skp file format would violate the EULA I think.
