• Let‟s take a look “down the road”…

• It‟s time for a change…

• A change for the better, much better…

• A new era of software technology is on the horizon…

• Let‟s take a look!

A little different approach this year…

• Comprehensive Geometry

– Complete Horizontal and Vertical geometry

– Facilitates Road and Rail geometry

• Intelligent DTM

– “Intelligent” Features, triangulated and non-triangulated

– Components

• Roadway Designer– Consumer/producer of the above

– Ultimate corridor design tool

• Better geometric representation

• Features represent real world „things‟

• Features hold / maintain relationships or design intent

• Proprietary aspect to its data/results– InRoads must make it to understand it

– Only InRoads can interpret the meaning

• Features in the DTM carry the important design information

Where are we today? – This is what we hear

Where are we going? “Civil Platform”

• Builds on 30+ (x3) years of experience in modeling

• Cumulative of the “best” capabilities/practices benefiting from a new architecture

• Enhanced user experience

• Removes proprietary barriers

• Extensible model

• Harness vast Bentley technology

How to improve Model Based Design?

• True Geometric model– Interoperate/Mix any and all types of geometric data (even if

we don‟t make it !)

• Remember Design Decisions– Why forget/hide the decisions you get paid to make?

• Extensible– Why do civil software vendors decide what objects and

properties are important to you?

• Reviewable– Why do we have to know inner workings of a “Civil”

application to review/check or understand the models we build?

• Maybe one way to explain is to tell what this is NOT.

• Our products are configured in two basic ways

– Layered Applications – where one installs MicroStation and then installs the application “on top” of MicroStation

– Power Applications – where the application is bound in a single package with the CAD functionality (MicroStation essentially)

• “IN” vs. “ON” has nothing to do with the above configuration paradigms

• It‟s all about how our applications work with MicroStation

• Let me explain…

• I‟m running MicroStation!

• Is it MicroStation or Bentley Civil?

• Why “IN”, not “ON”?

• MicroStation User Experience– Known workflow, usage, expectations

– “Flattens” the learning curve

– Consistency across CAD and application

– Minimizes the command set/footprint

• Use what MicroStation Offers

– Digital Terrain Model (will discuss later)

– Integrated Menu System

– Undo/Redo

– Measure

– Proper coordinate system

– Change Color, Style, etc.

– Manipulation

– Browsing capability

– Reporting

• For clarity…

• This concept is all about how the application integrates and works with MicroStation

• Layered applications can be “IN” MicroStation

• Power applications can be “IN” MicroStation

• Today our applications are “ON” MicroStation

• Our direction is “IN” MicroStation

• Horizontal Geometry + Vertical Geometry = 3D (rules based)

• Stroked for 3D but driven by real plan and profile geometry

• All tools (whether traditional “corridor” or “site”-like) all make the same thing, “Geometry” so they can all be combined to form single model.

• MicroStation will host the DTM

• Yes, the DTM will become a MicroStation Element

• Basic creation, display and analysis

• Will release in MicroStation next year

• All Bentley Verticals will have access

• All MicroStation users will have access

• At this point we have:

– Horizontal w/rules

– Vertical w/rules

– Horizontal + Vertical = 3D, which would imply rules based

• Rule based 3D‟s = Rule Based DTM‟s

• Greatly expanding Intelligent DTM

• Bigger & Faster

• Native to MicroStation

• MicroStation Views

– This topic is generally centered around the theme of adding MicroStation views to Roadway Designer

• Let‟s think of it in reverse

– Let‟s add Roadway Designer to MicroStation

– Remember “IN” MicroStation?

• Let‟s take a sneak preview…

• Customer have always asked to have their own properties on civil features

• These were application specific with tools to create and consume them – can‟t query, report, or even change outside the application

• Lets open them up – its your data.
