Export Data allows users to export customised reports from all data sources within the Navisworks® model in various formats including Excel, Access and PDF. It can combine data, charts, images and tables on one report.
Export data interrogates object data within the model and reports on predefined fields in the format specified on the configured template. The tool can be used in countless scenarios including: the production of audit reports, schedules, graphical representations of model data, and as a basis for amending model information to be linked-back with iConstruct’s Data Links tool.
The following example shows information contained within the doors of a model. Export data has been used firstly to export this to an excel sheet for scheduling and secondly, as a PDF report detailing the different types of doors within the project and their quantities. These exports can be used weekly to both assess changes in model information as well as rationalising the object types for project procurement.
