This May 11, Bentley Systems will be presenting a virtual press conference in which they plan to show their innovations in order to convert the traditional sheet of paper into a dynamic element. The invitation was sent by Cristine today; I guess that they will be reporting more of this in the rest of the month via web or other ...

A while ago we showed an archaic form of how was it possible to connect to OGC services using MicroStation; I remember Keith told me that the next version would have these capabilities. Connect To access, it’s always made using raster manager that now, additional to adding a raster file and imaging service it is displayed web map service ...

Preparing to take my daughter to the dentist, and spend a long weekend I’m leaving some interesting links. The first ones are two interesting egeomates (Spanish Idiom: “geofumadas”, in this case ideas) that I recommend to look carefully, and then some contents for those who are seeking healthy readings on Friday night Blom, Visual Inteligence: Pictometry is an interesting product ...

In an earlier post, I’ve spoken about Bentley Cadastre’s logic and origin, which itself is a Bentley map oriented application for plot management that takes advantage of xfm infrastructure and topological control. In my opinion, Bentley’s Cadastre implementation occupies an alien smoke (a Spanish idiom: “fumada extraterrestre”) in case of walking from scratch; it may be easier for those already ...

Some days ago I had considered testing how it works a Netbook in the geomatic medium, in this case I have been testing an Acer One that rural technicians commissioned me to buy on a visit to the city. The test helped me to decide if my next purchase will be invested on other high performance HP or if these ...

After SAICIC’s death, several Mexican programs appropriated this market, making it one of the engineering areas that was first automated. I remember that sometimes I’d trained costs’ course, and it was necessary to test different applications (available in those days), such us NewWall, Opus, Campeon Neodata. The latter seemed better even it bothered me I couldn’t distribute it in my ...

20 years ago, by this time I had cards’ collection under the pine tree which we literally cut (certainly, we were predators!), then we preserved cards in a trunk. Today, postcards are virtual objects; people leave them on their facebook, Hi5! or in their blogs. Here I leave some that I liked. This is from a friend of the regional ...

Bentley Cadastre is a special application built on Bentley Map from the XM V8.9 version and as its name implies, it is for this task, the Cadastre. Bentley Map is required for its operation, and it is equivalent to a controlled cadastral maintenance module. Priority focus of this application is the topology integration, a property got out from the moment ...

The shape files, known as .shp files will be quaternary formats in matter of technology but we can not avoid that they have been popularized as much as it was ArcView 3x. This is why they are still widely used, to the extent that most platforms especially geospatial have developed routines to operate them. Even gvSIG can read and edit ...
