How did we gt here...

The construction industry started with 2D drawing and drafting which were visualized and engineers had to use imagination for proper elevation and manage work. The industry soon got 3D modeling software such as AutoCAD 3D, 3Ds Max, and Civil 3D. This surely changed the industry with 3D simulation and drafting techniques. The need for more sophisticated and one-stop-shop software was seen, with which REVIT and Navisworks came into the scene. REVIT gave the most significant 3D models and which can be used by Architects-Construction-Engineers workers. This incorporated with BIM gave a leap to this industry with many draught decades. The need for Navisworks was seen as a scheduling and modeling combination and to verify the planning of the project which can give us Clash free and seamless construction process. 
Navisworks gives us output in various forms which are- 3D model, Models with a working simulation which shows workers, machines, vehicles, and cranes which are needed and can be seen where they will be placed. This was originally developed by UK based developer and then purchased by Autodesk.

What language do you need to know...

Now if you are into planning and need things to get faster and easy to change, you will need to get to the next step with some programming language and API, and qualified Workbooks. Here Navisworks uses the .NET Framework for composing and editing.

What inputs are needed?

We can insert files in Navisworks such as .nwd, .nwf, .nwc, and when you want to import AutoCAD files they can be .dwg or .dxf with .3ds and .prj also an option for 3D Studio files.
The top choice will be BIM Model. This will help us to understand the basic contents such as geometry, relevant object property, and the most significant one - The clash Detection Test.

The Clash Detection

Navisworks Clash Detection

Clash detection is one of the most powerful tools with Navisworks Manage Version which helps us find when objects hit each other in design which gives us a potential view of the clash of different objects and helps us identify and make the necessary corrections. It can be architectural, structural design or MEP designs with themselves and with each other. This helps accelerate the coordination process between them and to identify issues faster.

What output do we get?

Navisworks allows us to have a different version of files which we can use easily with the Basic file which works on Navisworks Freedom, Stimulate and Manage version. navisworks gives files out in form of .nwd, .nwf, and .nwc along with dwf, dwfx, fbx, and kml.

How well does this go along with other competitors?

Softwares such as SketchUp, Tekla Structures, Syhncro, MicroStation, Archicad, DataCAD, Vectorworks Architect are an alternative and competitors which also gives modeling and clash detection application.

Great Man-Made River (GMR)

Libya's Great Man Made River: The Great Man-Made River in Libya is one of the most ambitious Civil Engineering Project in history of mankind.  In the year 1953, the Libya Government found out not only vast oil reserves but also vast quantity of fresh water locked under the strata, most of the water was trapped around 7000-30000 years ago which is divided in 4 different basins. The first basin is named Kufra basin which is neat Egypt Border which covers almost 35000 sq kilometer which is quite deep around 2000 m deep. The other basin is in Sirte Basin which cover 10000 sq kilometer, third in Murzuk Basin and the last in Jabal Fezzan Basin covering 4800 sq kilometers area.  The GMR project will be used to transfer water to North of the country to provide water for irrigation purpose for more than 6 million  people. This will be a changing point  for Libya and the Colonel Muammar Gaddafi called it the Eighth Wonder of World. The work started in 1984 of the project and estimated to be
