Read more about file opening time for MicroStation CONNECT Edition update. We understand that many variables can affect working with large data sets, however, from our internal baseline, we’ve compared our various updates based on the number of elements in our files. Over the updates, we continuously looked at ways we can improve performance in MicroStation CONNECT Edition, and we strive to continue to do this. With that in mind, let’s look at some data that we’ve collected from our tests if we compare the file opening times in MicroStation CONNECT Edition.
The file set for just this model is ~ 7 Gigs in size including the reality mesh and combination of DGN files.įrom here, know that files can become even larger as we include more detail into the files including construction drawings for each building, roads, etc. In this Data Set, we have a mixture of Reality Mesh combined with multiple DGN’s from different disciplines such as OpenRoads Designer and OpenBuildings Designer combined in a DGN within MicroStation.
Let’s take for example this data set, Pescara del Tronto. Also, these files are usually pretty large. Starting with a Point Cloud or a reality mesh usually brings the project into a geolocated, contextually aware starting point. Therefore, there is no need to start with a blank canvas. However, today, many projects already start from a contextual place. We can start a project with a simple DGN-file and then add on to it. Incorporating Designs from an Old Project Fileĭesign File of Bridge brought into MicroStation CONNECT Edition with Reality Mesh and background maps to set the context and reuse of existing design work. We can see that DGN’s are a timeless file format.Īs proof, we used this design of a bridge that was created in the ’80s and saved on floppy disks – these are still usable data today and can be added into this project that has been revitalized for today. Working with large file sets may be cumbersome, but MicroStation handles large file sets relatively easily with the 64-bit architecture that MicroStation CONNECT Edition is built upon. Over time, projects get bigger and more complex. MicroStation Can Handle Big Data Projects - No Matter the File Size
However, with the release of the MicroStation V8 products and the only file format change in the history of Bentley, that limitation is no longer and is based on the Windows Operating System. Starting with MicroStation J, the file format size was limited to 32 megs.
