Description of Copy/Monitor tool and Coordination Review tool available on Coordinate panel in Revit Some of the most indispensable Revit tools reside on Coordinate panel on the collaborate ribbon which are used for performing various important tasks by design and construction professionals while they work on a building project in Revit. And some of these tools are common in all the available Revit disciplines such as Revit Architecture, Revit Structure and Revit MEP. Thus it indicates that tools incorporated on Coordinate panel are extremely significant which are extensively used during multi-discipline coordination when interdisciplinary 3D models are linked by Revit users in current project. Other important tools that are contained on coordinate panel apart from Copy/Monitor and Coordination Review are:

Uses of Copy/Monitor during multi-discipline coordination
To fully realize design technicalities as well as complications AEC professionals generally integrate on a building project in Revit wherein they have to communicate or convey design information to other design teams involved in the project. For communicating design developments which includes modifications and changes in the models to different teams, Copy/Monitor tool is greatly used by Revit users. During design coordination BIM modelers generally work by linking a model within their model, so if in case they require to copy the elements of a linked model in their host model they are entitled to use Cop/Monitor tool.
Users of Coordination Review tool in Revit
As Copy/Monitor tool is used during multi-discipline coordination similarly coordination review tool is also used by Revit users during the same time. For dealing with the complexities of warnings that are sent by Revit when members of design development team make some adjustments to the monitored elements, users have to take the assistance of coordination review tool. The list of the alterations that are made to monitored elements can be viewed by Revit users by accessing Coordination Review dialog and they can then perform an action for them with the help of Action column.
