AVEVA Launches AVEVA Review 6.4 – Delivering High Quality Realistic Representation
AVEVA launched AVEVA Review 6.4, the latest version of the high performance 3D visualisation tool for large complex plant and marine models.
Taking data from a range of 3D plant design systems, AVEVA Review delivers a high quality realistic representation of the model to a wide range of project personnel, providing the ability to easily share, inspect the design and communicate details to everyone involved with design, installation, operations and maintenance.
Key new features of AVEVA Review 6.4:
*Integration with AVEVA ReviewShare - create, view, edit and distribute ReviewShare documents
*Enhanced support for Laser Scanned models - now with the same functionality as the AVEVA Laser Model Interface
*Enhanced user features - easier definition and manipulation of clipping volumes and section planes
*Improved user interface - providing quicker and simpler navigation, selection, and modification.
When there is a requirement to communicate ideas or undertake project reviews - particularly across multiple remote sites - AVEVA Review 6.4 provides the perfect visual collaboration link for use through all stages of the plant lifecycle, whilst using standard enterprise communications.
AVEVA Review 6.4 is tightly integrated with the new AVEVA ReviewShare product, thereby enhancing collaboration across all project stakeholders.
AVEVA ReviewShare is a Review-inspired tool, developed specifically to support collaborative 3D design review across teams, sites, regions and even continents. Making use of AVEVA's unique 3D streaming technology, it combines the high quality 3D visualisation of AVEVA Review with intuitive comment and mark-up tools, to create compact, and easily distributable, 3D collaboration documents.
It integrates fully with AVEVA Review 6.4, allowing each reviewer to add his own individually auditable comments, incorporating text, 2D screenshots and 3D views, and share them easily with other reviewers - even over low-bandwidth connections.
The ReviewShare Server and connection licenses will be supplied at no extra cost with each seat of AVEVA Review 6.4. Businesses that do not use Review, but wish to share in the design review process with other businesses that do have Review, will be able to download the ReviewShare Reader (client) from the AVEVA website at www.aveva.com/reviewshare
Richard Longdon, CEO of AVEVA commented:
"AVEVA's development of AVEVA Review 6.4 demonstrates our continual commitment to providing increased value for our customers. The enhancements AVEVA Review 6.4 brings will allow our customers to more rapidly convey and share concepts through superior collaboration capabilities. Together with ReviewShare, this release provides for unrivalled comprehensive access to 3D model data that can be universally shared."
AVEVA Review 6.4 will be commercially available at the end of February 2008.
