Navisworks AEC

The Autodesk® Navisworks® software family comprises three 3D design project review products and one free* viewer application to help you and your extended teams experience enhanced control and confident collaboration on your most complex projects:

• Autodesk® Navisworks® Manage software
• Autodesk® Navisworks® Simulate software
• Autodesk® Navisworks® Review software
• Autodesk® Navisworks® Freedom software-free* viewer application

By combining the high-quality 3D design data created by AutoCAD® software, Revit®-based applications, and Autodesk® Inventor® software with geometry and data from other design tools, Autodesk Navisworks project review products enable a dynamic real-time, whole-project view for:

• Effective 3D coordination analysis
• 4D planning simulation
• Accurate photorealistic visualization

The aggregated whole-project view can be published in both Autodesk Navisworks native NWD format and 3D DWF^TM format, giving all stakeholders access to the virtual project with Autodesk Navisworks Freedom.
 

Autodesk Navisworks Manage

Autodesk Navisworks Manage software is a comprehensive project review solution for design, engineering, and construction management professionals seeking powerful insight and predictability to improve productivity and quality. Autodesk Navisworks Manage software provides all the tools required for smooth-running engineering and construction projects.

  

 Consistent, Coordinated, Correct

Integrating the functionality of both Autodesk Navisworks Review and Autodesk Navisworks Simulate with powerful clash detection capabilities, Autodesk Navisworks Manage provides the most complete Navisworks design project review solution. Navisworks Manage adds precise fault-finding analysis and interference management to the dynamic 4D project schedule simulation and photorealistic visualization of Autodesk Navisworks Simulate. Enabling consistent, coordinated, and correct construction documentation, Navisworks Manage streamlines workflow across your organization and extended teams, helping to reduce waste, increase efficiency, and significantly reduce change orders.

Through effective identification, inspection, and reporting of potential interferences in a 3D project model, Navisworks Manage reduces error-prone manual checking. Navisworks Manage enables users to check time and space coordination, improving site and workflow planning. Control and peace of mind are enhanced through automated coordination analysis of 3D designs. Early fault prediction and error recognition help to prevent costly miscalculations. Combine all your 3D data, regardless of file size, from multiple formats into a faithful facility model for viewing and analyzing all digital information.

Navisworks Manage combines precise fault-finding with hard and clearance clash management. Quickly review and cross-check geometry created by competing 3D design software. Maintain a complete and valuable record of all interferences found throughout your project. Check for time and space coordination and virtually eliminate workflow issues at the planning stage. Point and line-based clashing enable coordination of a laser-scanned as-built environment with the virtual model.
  

Faster Navigation and Checking

Real-time visualization enables fast navigation and review of complex 3D models and all the project information they contain. Use Navisworks Manage to effectively explore your designs without the need for preprogrammed animation, advanced hardware, or special skills.
  

Autodesk Navisworks Simulate

Autodesk Navisworks Simulate software adds the dynamic power of 4D scheduling and photorealism to Autodesk Navisworks Review software. The value of existing design data is extended to create clear descriptive content that demonstrates design intent and simulates construction to drive insight and predictability. When you can virtually experience your project in a visual context before the physical work begins, you can evaluate and verify the materials and textures appropriate to your intended design.
  

 Autodesk Navisworks Review

Autodesk Navisworks Review software extends access to existing design data for real-time visualization and collaborative review, regardless of file size or format. Dynamic navigation and intuitive review tools make it easy to understand even the most complex 3D models. Entire project models can be published and viewed in NWD and 3D DWF file formats to provide valuable digital assets during and after construction. 
 

 Autodesk Navisworks Freedom

Autodesk Navisworks Freedom software is the free* viewer application for Autodesk Navisworks NWD and 3D DWF^TM files. With Autodesk Navisworks project review products†, you can combine design data regardless of file size or format and publish a whole-project view. Navisworks Freedom and NWD files give stakeholders better access to whole-project views.
   

† Project review products include Autodesk Navisworks Manage, Autodesk Navisworks Simulate, and Autodesk Navisworks Review.
