The company’s software serves the building, plant, civil, and geospatial vertical markets in the areas of architecture, engineering, construction (AEC) , Incorporated, today announced the release of Bentley(R) PowerSurvey(TM). With this product, the company brings to surveying a complete, low-cost solution that is based on and compatible with its market-leading mapping and civil engineering platforms. PowerSurvey offers surveying consultancies and engineering firms a full set of tools for the capture, transfer, and analysis of survey data. As it is CAD-based, it provides immediate visualization throughout the survey workflow. PowerSurvey communicates with all industry-leading survey data collectors and supports the DGN DGN Design (file) DGN Dirección General de Normas (Standards Organization in Mexico) DGN MicroStation Design File (file format/extension) and DWG (filename extension) dwg - The filename extension for Autodesk drawing files. http://faqs.org/faqs/graphics/fileformats-faq/part3/. file formats - a first in CAD-based surveying. Perhaps the highest productivity feature of PowerSurvey is the user-definable feature database. This capability allows surveyors to generate and view drawings with feature and point details onsite for immediate verification. This feature and workflow also facilitates standardization and reduces misunderstandings from field surveyor to designer. PowerSurvey integrates existing survey and civil engineering systems and promotes reuse of data. By connecting field-surveying devices to a personal computer, laptop, or tablet PC (1) A tablet computer environment from Microsoft that is based on an enhanced version of Windows XP. Designed to function more like a portable writing tablet than previous tablet-based computers, it includes handwriting recognition as well as the ability to retain handwritten words , users can easily share survey data with other systems without translation.
