Advancing GIS for Infrastructure A full-featured GIS for the world s infrastructure Bentley Geospatial Web Publishing Ideal standalone for mapping applications A robust platform for Bentley s infrastructure applications Bentley Geospatial Industry Applications Bentley Geospatial Server The desktop foundation in a flexible enterprise architecture Bentley Bentley Geospatial Desktop Uniquely allows a choice Desktop of persistent data stores Unites the best of GIS with the power of MicroStation Bentley Geospatial Mobile Applications Enterprise Integration

A Highly Flexible Architecture

Your Choice of Data Stores A two-tier connection to Oracle Spatial A three-tier connection to Oracle Spatial A three-tier connection to ArcGIS Self-contained XFM DGN files Any RDBMS/DGN supported by MicroStation

Top Features All the power of MicroStation Map Manager XML Feature Modeling Geospatial Administrator Oracle Spatial editing Topology model and maintenance Spatial analysis and presentation Map generation and print preparation Map projection and coordinate conversion Data cleanup tools Interoperability GIS Development Platform

All the Power of MicroStation What does it mean? Smart, quick drawing and editing of GIS features in a MicroStation environment Raster management Dimensioning AccuSnap, AccuDraw Display priority, transparency Photorealistic visualization and animation Full 3D modeling Superior MicroStation printing and publishing Workspace management for large projects

Map Manager An easy-to-learn interface into your spatial data Intuitive, easy-to-use, persisted map definition Allows for multiple map definitions Override symbology MicroStation transparency Scale based visibility Drag and drop layers to control display order Facilitator for: Seamless mapping Integration of many spatial data formats Thematic presentation and more!

XML Feature Modeling (XFM) XML Metadata Driven GIS Features Properties Domain lists, default values Property based symbology Property based annotation Relationships Placement and editing rules Operations and methods Other behaviors Message propagation rules User interface Extensible Enforces user standards Easy to implement without programming GeoSpatial Administrator XFM Schema Bentley Map geographic objects

Geospatial Administrator How does it work? Manages the XFM framework through one interface Runs outside MicroStation Defines and maintains XFM project files Schema contains comprehensive definition of geographic objects (features) Defines coordinate system and projection information User interface definition dynamically loaded at run-time Inclusion of custom made VBA or MDL routines User specific definition of features, operations, methods using workspaces Automatically generates MicroStation workspaces and Map metadata files

Oracle Spatial Editing Fully Oracle Spatial Compliant: Two-tier connection Directly query, capture, edit and post Oracle Spatial data Supports multi-user access via feature locking Three-tier connection Available via the Oracle Connector Supports multi-user access via Oracle standard versioning Adheres to native Oracle Spatial feature and topology models Maintains defined topological relationships Provides application specific editing tools for accurate feature placement and editing Includes bulk Oracle Spatial Load tool

Interoperability with Oracle Spatial

Topology Model Based on the Oracle 10g topology model Two Topology modes: Session topology, built on-the-fly as needed Persistent topology, topological primitives are created only once Primitives (nodes, edges, faces) are store in the DGN Each primitive can be associated with one or more features Both modes are supported with or without Oracle Shared editing is easier Analysis uses high performance topological algorithms Features involved in topology and split/merge rules are defined in the Geospatial Administrator

Topology Maintenance Place features like any other XFM features Topology graph is maintained while editing Use shared editing commands to move common primitives, e.g. moving a lot corner moves all the parcels with it Split/Merge polygon command Line Cleaning tools Find dangles, gaps, duplicates From spaghetti Line Work» Shapefile» DGN» DWG» Oracle Geometry» other

Spatial Analysis and Presentation Spatial Analysis Create buffers around selected features Spatial Query Overlay feature classes Results symbolization and reporting Maintain overlays in project file or export to supported formats Thematic Display Ramp Ranges Unique Value Fully configurable symbology Auto generated legends Thematic definitions persisted

Map Generation and Print Preparation Grid and graticule generation Marginalia Legends North arrow Scalebar Neatlines Notifications Logos Interactively place multi-page borders Border libraries Size scale dependent Graphical placement (move, rotate, scale) Automatically place metadata in border Paper-space sheet models Plot high fidelity output through MicroStation Publish to intelligent PDF 3D PDF Bookmarks Web links

Map Projections and Coordinate Conversion 5500+ projections including user defined Store coordinate systems information with mapping and engineering data for portability Perform on-the-fly transformation Oracle Spatial information Referenced information Integrate source data in multiple projections Bulk transform spatial data between projection systems Use Geospatial Administrator to define and look up

Data Cleanup and Integrity Tools Solve integrity problems with imported or legacy data Interactively cleanup data to establish spatial and topological integrity Find and repair dangles, gaps, slivers, overshoots, join and segment lines, reduce points Use handy editing tools to resolve data problems Use warping tools to fit data to existing control Easily adopt imported or legacy data through Dynamic Feature Scoring (DFS) Existing features (MicroStation, GeoGraphics, other) are recognized and operated on consistently via DFS rules Editing or reset of the feature causes PBS and PBA rules to be run Attributes can be easily added by editing

Interoperability Direct reference geospatial formats MapInfo (TAB, MID/MIF), Shapefiles, Oracle Spatial Select files to reference as you would any DGN Files are referenced and transformed according to defined projection Work with the native format - identify, overlay, and more No special licensing required Use Map Manager to determine display characteristics! Import/Export via an easy-to-use interface designed for large jobs Enables direct editing in Bentley Map MapInfo (TAB, MID/MIF), Shapefiles, Oracle Spatial Customize layer symbology, properties, display order, and selected information Use any Bentley Map functionality on imported features Settings can be saved in import files which can be opened or referenced directly

GIS Development Platform Subject Matter Experts can customize Bentley Map facilitated by the Geospatial Administrator Property Based Symbology Property Based Annotation Criteria Methods Operations Dialogs Tool frames and tool boxes Prompts Developers can further customize by extending the capabilities of Geospatial Administrator and the Standard Placement Library via: C expressions XSLT VBScript VBA MDL.NET API

Is Bentley Map Right for You? Yes! Especially if you are: A MicroStation or AutoCAD user who wants intelligent GIS features and GIS functionality A GIS user who wants an open, extensible GIS environment that includes all the capabilities of MicroStation A MicroStation GeoGraphics user who wants a more robust, flexible GIS environment based on V8 XM Edition Committed to Oracle Spatial as an enterprise standard An infrastructure professional who wants a single environment for all aspects of your work An AEC application user who wants wants to add geospatial context and GIS capabilities to his current environment

What can Bentley Map do for You? Escalate user productivity by leveraging XFM and MicroStation Capitalize on Oracle Spatial throughout your organization Avoid expensive custom software via the configurable XFM environment Build and deploy project applications quickly Exploit the value of existing CAD licenses and trained users Facilitate better decision making through analysis, visualization, and presentation Enable better communciation through stunning maps and intelligent PDF s Streamline workflows by integration with many formats and standards

What else will Bentley Map bring? Bentley Cadastre special parcel menegement application Bentley PowerMap XM Edition the Bentley Map version of PowerMap Bentley Map will be included in Bentley industry applications Electric, Water, etc. 2008

How to get Bentley Map? Customers who have purchased GeoGraphics either separately or as part of MicroStation will get the license for fee, if their put it under SELECT For customers who do not have GeoGraphics, we will have upgrade campaign
