Features

Import third-party file formats

Easily import models from other vendors into the collaborative environment for full-project review and integration.

Visualize point clouds with 3D models

Overlay laser scans of as-built conditions onto the design model to detect construction issues early.

Walkthroughs and animations

Create interactive animations and walkthroughs to assist in operator training, safety, and design review.

Clipping tools

Use clipping planes to section the model, isolate areas of interest, and explore internal components in detail.

Volumetric clipping

Isolate and focus on specific regions of the model using volumetric tools for deep analysis.

Measurement

Measure distances between any two points to verify clearance, accessibility, or installation requirements.

Annotation

Add notes and markup directly onto the model to communicate changes or requests clearly and efficiently.
