Navisworks Clash Data Refiner

Turn messy Navisworks reports into actionable Power BI data in seconds.

About

The Clash Data Refiner is a standalone engine that cleans and intelligently refines messy Navisworks reports before they reach Power BI. It automatically corrects discipline assignments, groups thousands of Revit family names, and sorts building levels by physics rather than alphabet. Transform raw XML into professional, dashboard-ready data in seconds—no installation required.

Features

  • Smart Categorization: Consolidates thousands of raw Revit family names (e.g., "Duct Fittings") into clean groups (e.g., "Ducts")
  • Physics-Based Sorting: Sorts levels by true Z-coordinates (B3 -> GF -> RF) instead of alphabetical order
  • Impact Ranking: Calculates absolute clash depth to separate Critical issues (>50mm) from noise (<10mm).
  • Intelligent Mapping: Detects trades correctly by analyzing filenames and categories (e.g., identifying Structural Beams inside Arch models).
  • Zero-Install: A tiny (~8MB) portable executable that runs instantly on any Windows PC.

How it Works

  1. Export: Save your Navisworks Clash Report as XML
  2. Refine: Drag and drop the XML file onto ClashRefiner.exe
  3. Visualize: An optimized .xlsx file is generated instantly for Power BI
