Naviate Daylight
Automate daylight area ratio checking of your BIM model for optimising design decisions on indoor lighting, windows and other elements for better work and living areas.
Save time...
with reports in local language and instant colouring of your BIM Model according to local requirements
Increase control of your data...
with direct connection to local rule-sets for daylight ratio; ensuring that you always are up to date with existing regulations
Optimise workflows...
with workflows directly on your design model and automatically updates when you update your design
Customised for architects
Automates daylight requirements checking (simplified method) based on local standards. Set the required minimum Windows-to-Floor Area Ratio of each room and the plug-in checks automatically whether the room meets your given requirements. Get a quick overview how much daylight each room has, given by the glass areas in all curtain walls and windows from each room. Naviate Daylight use the floor area of all defined rooms in the model to define floor areas needed to calculate daylight area rate and in order to get the room bounded surrounding walls, windows, and panes.
