BENTLEY RELEASES MICROSTATION DESCARTES V8.Bentley Systems Bentley Systems, Incorporated, provides software for the "Design, construction and operation of the world's infrastructure". The company’s software serves the building, plant, civil, and geospatial vertical markets in the areas of architecture, engineering, construction (AEC) , Incorporated, Atlantic City Atlantic City, city (1990 pop. 37,986), Atlantic co., SE N.J., an Atlantic resort and convention center; settled c.1790, inc. 1854. Situated on Absecon Island, a barrier island 10 mi (16. , has released MicroStation(R) Descartes(TM) for MicroStation(R) V8. MicroStation Descartes is a comprehensive imaging solution for mapping, visualization and raster-to-vector conversion projects. Designed for both production and visualization, MicroStation Descartes is used worldwide by engineers and planners in many disciplines, including Civil Engineering, Plant Design, Geoengineering, Facilities, and Architectural Design This article or section may contain original research or unverified claims. Please help Wikipedia by adding references. See the for details. This article has been tagged since September 2007. . MicroStation Descartes adds a wide range of high-performance raster functionality to MicroStation, allowing users to edit and manipulate black and white and color imagery for a variety of engineering, document conversion, mapping, visualization, and presentation purposes. Descartes has tools to warp, georeference, resample, mosaic, drape drape v. To cover, dress, or hang with or as if with cloth in loose folds. n.

MicroStation Descartes can also be customized to workflows where automation and interface customization is required. Through September 2002, Bentley is offering a promotional price for Descartes for users of competitive products such as I/RAS C(TM). During the "Open it Up" promotion, registered users of I/RAS C can "upgrade" to Descartes V8 for $888. Carey Mann, vice president of Industry and Product Marketing, commented, "Most vendors require multiple distinct products to achieve the one stop imaging that Descartes provides. And raster is now so tightly integrated into MicroStation and the V8 Generation foundation that MicroStation Descartes is a compelling choice for MicroStation users." MicroStation Descartes V8 includes significant performance improvements and many exciting new features. Key capabilities of MicroStation Descartes V8 include the following: -- High-performance full-color display engine for binary, gray scale and color images (1, 4, 8, 11 and 24 bits) -- Native support (no conversion required) on a large range of industry-standard raster file formats and compression methods -- Viewing and editing of Mr. SID and ECW ECW Extreme Championship Wrestling ECW Episcopal Church Women ECW English Civil War ECW Enhanced Compressed Wavelet (Image compression format created by Earth Resource Mapping) ECW Extracellular Water files -- Visualization with image draping draping, n in massage, technique of securely covering and uncovering parts of the body and moving the client. draping covering the animal with sterile drapes for surgery leaving exposed only that part of the body that has been using 3D terrain models -- Image placement and warping tools on image selection sets -- Image visualization capabilities include mosaics and montages, corridor and plan sheet alignment, vector stamping (rasterization) and raster drafting -- Color editing brushes and filters -- Automated and semi-automated raster-to-vector conversion, text recognition and OCR OCR in full optical character recognition Scanning and comparison technique intended to identify printed text or numerical data.
