CATIA is a multi-platform software kit for CAD/CAM/CAE, PLM and 3D, created by the French company Dassault Systèmes.
Commonly referred to as a 3D PLM software suite, CATIA supports all stages of product development, including conceptualization, design, engineering and manufacturing. CATIA facilitates collaborative engineering across disciplines around its 3DEXPERIENCE platform, including surfacing & shape design, electrical, fluid and electronic systems design, mechanical engineering and systems engineering. CATIA facilitates the design of electronic, electrical, and distributed systems such as fluid and HVAC systems, all the way to the production of documentation for manufacturing.
Navisworks® project review software by Autodesk is used to improve the coordination of BIM and AEC projects. Its main function is to define clashes, interferences, and similar conflicts within the design stage and to resolve them.
Navisworks® combines all the data related to the project and lets all relevant parties explore and review it. The software brings together design and engineering data, construction schedules, animated models, and simulation. It allows users to perform comprehensive analysis and accurate control of complex construction works.
A CAD file is an output of a CAD software, containing key information about the designed object: its geometry and topology representation, 3D model hierarchy, metadata, and visual attributes depending on the format of the file.
