JetStream is a 3D design review package for Microsoft Windows, created by NavisWorks.

Used primarily in construction industries to complement 3D design packages (such as AutoCAD, and Microstation) JetStream allows users to open and combine 3D models, navigate around them in real-time and review the model using a set of tools including comments, redlining, viewpoint, and measurements. A selection of plug-ins enhance the package adding interference detection, 4D time simulation, photorealistic rendering and PDF-like publishing.

Components

JetStream is built around a core module called Roamer and has a number of plug-in modules that can be purchased seperately.

Roamer - The core part of JetStream allows users to open models from a range of 3D design and laser scan formats and combine them into a single 3D model. Users can then navigate around the model in real-time and add review the model with a range of mark-up tools.
Publisher - This plug-in allows users to publish the complete 3D model into a single nwd file that can be freely opened by anyone using Freedom, a free viewer.
Clash Detective - A plug-in to enable interference detection. This means users can select parts of the model and look for places where the geometry conflicts. This is for finding faults in the design.
Presenter - With Presenter users can apply materials and lighting to the model and product photorealistic images and animations
TimeLiner - Adds 4D simulation so the user can link geometry to times and dates and to simulate the construction or demolition of the model over time. Also links with project scheduling software (Such as Microsoft Project) to import task data.

Version History

The product was originally called NavisWorks (the same name as the company that makes it) however the name has gradually migrated to JetStream.
