Microstation V8i Select Series 1 (8.11.05) Bentley Map PowerView Select Series 2 (8.11.07) At this level of versions, it has incorporated a pin to fix the panel or send it as a tab on the left, such as the Ribbon in AutoCAD.
If improvements are mentioned, it has been included tools for Review and Markup (these exist only in this license) something similar to what was previously done with Redline but with more potential, plus the sum of improvements which involved Select Series 2. It can be sticked to an Oracle database, but only in reading mode, falls outside topology handling inside Oracle or data insertion, it can not generate I-models but can be read. If we mention interoperability, it does not include FME extensions also GIS formats’ export is reduced, just Google Earth and CAD formats.
All Microstation tools for build, edit, and compose layouts are there, in what differs is, seeing the left pane, that it does not include tools to make animations, advanced visualizations, 3D modeling and surfaces it can be seen 3D but these tools does not come as in the case of full versions that Bentley Map brings.įrom Bentley Map includes all analysis tools, except for scripting, spatial analysis and network. In the following chart I show a difference between normal Microstation task pane with Bentley PowerView. PowerDraft and PowerMap users will be the ones which see more advantages in terms of editing tools, So that PowerMap Select Series 1 will stagnate there, it will continue for sale with no sense if PowerView Select Series 2 is more robust and costs less. $ 7.000 according to Bentley’s comparative table that has made public. For more smoked cases Bentley Map Enterprise has been left that exceeds U.S. To do this, what has done is to sharpen the differences of the next version (Bentley Map V8i) which includes Cadastre tools and MapScript – it almost goes round U.S. It is even cheaper than Microstation alone. It is obvious that Bentley seeks to insert this version to the market as an economic tool that includes Bentley Map capabilities and Microstation full power in a single license. $ 1.350 that’s why I imagined it would has lower capacities than PowerMap Select Series 1 who walks round U.S. It is ironic that now costs less than U.S. To begin with, rather than a limited version, it has greater capabilities. At first there has been eliminated some of my doubts in the previous post when I showed the three lines of geospatial area for 2011. I have received a version of PowerView V8i Select Series 2 (version 8.11.07), the economic line in mapping area that Bentley hopes to exploit.
