Bentley OnSite Overview & Update
Bentley OnSite Modules
• Administrator– Preferences– Project Builder– Data Reporting– Asbuilt Data to DGN
• Client – Analysis of Original Designs– Stakeout– Inspection– Quantities measurement for contractor payments– Final as-built surveys
Bentley’s OnSite Goals
• Eliminate Reverse Engineering
• In-field data access
• On-site Location assistance
• Design intelligence in the field
Who can use Bentley Onsite?
• Construction Inspectors
• Construction Layout Crews
• Surveyors and Engineers
• Operation and Maintenance Firms
• Geotechnical Firms
• Land Developers
• Municipalities
So What Does It Require?
• No CAD is required
• No pre-requisite Engineering Applications, such as GEOPAK, InRoads, or MX
• Viewing, Calculations, and Reporting are self contained
• Populate data from LandXML files or from GEOPAK, InRoads or MX designs
• Training time is minimal
What Does It Support?
• Mapping Systems and Geoids
• Spin/calibrate into local control
• Work in Ground or Grid design systems
• CORS/VRS (Continuously Operating Reference Stations)
• Manual mode, GPS, Laser Ranger Finder, Total Station (limited)
• Schematic mode
Bentley OnSite Administrator
• PC application
• Manages system environment
• Creates and Edits Design Archives
• Transfers both Design Archives and As-Built Databases back and forth between PC and Handhelds
• Merging and redistribution of Field Project Databases
• Generates .dgn “as-built”
• Extensive reports
Bentley OnSite (Client)• Utilizes Quantity Manager Data if present
• Provides comprehensive field notes– Pictures– Sound Bites– Sketches with Handwriting Recognition
• Provides direct access to Specifications
• Works Geospatially or Schematically
Hardware Options
• Office PC or Laptop – XP operating system
• Tablet PC (Best)– Tablet PC or XP operating system
• Ultra Mobile PC (Best)– Tablet PC or XP operating system
• Hand Held PDA (Usable)– Windows Mobile
• Mobile Phone (Stretch)– Windows Mobile
So How Does It Work???
• Administrator– Pulls multiple formats together– Design Archive is protected– NO Translation

ProjectWise Integration
• OnSite Administrator
• Check-In / Check-Out Functionality
• Managing as-built during construction with versions
• Check–In and Check-Out all associated files by project
Raster Image Attachment
Wireless Project Transfer
• Bi-directional wireless project transfer
• Upload field collected information from the mobile units to the field office as-built database
• Download from as-built database to mobile units to view other inspectors’ work
• No need to leave job site to synch project
Wireless Project Transfer Continued…
GPS Data Quality
• Preserve accuracy information with each GPS shot– Horizontal and vertical accuracy– Number of satellites– PDOP,HDOP,VDOP– Preferences for maximum acceptable accuracies– Filter data by GPS accuracies– Data averaging
Geo-coordination for V8i
• Standard geodetic computation engine– MicroStation V8i– Bentley Map V8i– Bentley InRoads V8i– Bentley GEOPAK V8i– Bentley OnSite V8i (desktop and handheld)
