Bentley Releases Geo Web Publisher 2004 Edition; Enables Geospatial Web Sites to Be Developed and Deployed in Minutes.EXTON, Pa. -- 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, today announced the release of Bentley Geo Web Publisher 2004 Edition, a high-performance Internet server that enables local or regional governments, utilities, communications providers, and other organizations to easily and cost-effectively develop and deploy customized Internet sites offering public access to spatially indexed content. Ideal for smaller organizations with limited IT support and for larger ones that need to quickly deploy temporary project or permanent Web sites, Bentley Geo Web Publisher provides affordable, high-fidelity publishing of geospatial data on the Internet without complicated programming. Cost savings are provided by an innovative licensing scheme that puts this technology within the reach of even small local governments. To speed implementation, an intelligent Web site design wizard guides choices for layout, colors, display controls, tools, and other interface elements - enabling complex Web sites to be developed and deployed by nonprogrammers in minutes. In addition, the wizard gives site administrators a tool to help them manage content to be published. Possible applications include, among others, municipal information systems, image or drawing archives, map-based navigational sites, project sites, and public information portals. Because it publishes hybrid vector/raster datasets and more than 30 formats (such as MicroStation DGN DGN Design (file) DGN Dirección General de Normas (Standards Organization in Mexico) DGN MicroStation Design File (file format/extension) and MicroStation GeoGraphics information, Digital InterPlot DPR DPR Department (al) Performance Report DPR Decreto del Presidente della Repubblica (Italian Republic presidential decree) DPR Department of Pesticide Regulation (California) files, and other geospatial formats), Bentley Geo Web Publisher lets the developers of these sites easily add drawings, maps, models, aerial photography, and images - providing user-targeted browser presentations. Additional features of Bentley Geo Web Publisher include: robust tools for viewing, printing, plotting, and redlining Identifying text that has been changed in a word processing document by displaying it in a special color, for example. It allows the original author of the text or other users to see ongoing revisions. The term comes from manual editing where a red pen is used to mark up the pages. raster and vector data; the ability to query database information; plus a rich set of development tools. Client and server-side applications can be developed with standard Web programming tools such as Java, HTML HTML in full HyperText Markup Language Markup language derived from SGML that is used to prepare hypertext documents. Relatively easy for nonprogrammers to master, HTML is the language used for documents on the World Wide Web. , and ASP, or can be customized with MicroStation Development Language (MDL MDL - (Originally "Muddle").

Behind Geo Web Publisher's high-performance image publishing is an Internet Imaging Protocol The Internet Imaging Protocol, or IIP, is an Internet protocol designed by the International Imaging Industry Association. IIP is built on top of HTTP to communicate images and their metadata and takes advantage of the FlashPix image architecture.

The image server enables publishing workflows through Web clients and also supports production workflows of remotely served image sets to Bentley Descartes and MicroStation GeoGraphics.
