Bentley Geospatial Server

Value Proposition The Geospatial Server provides a secured centralized environment to contain the explosion of information in an organization by managing, indexing, editing, and plotting structured and unstructured data

Bentley Geospatial Server Key Innovations Unique Federated Information Management Approach Index rather than convert Keep the richness and meaning of your information in your favorite formats (no conversion) Find information via spatial or non-spatial criteria View/Edit using your favorite viewing and editing tools, Applications can be launched directly from the map interface Manage, index, edit, and printing/plotting »Structured Information with schemas such as spatial databases, XFM DGNs, Shapefiles »Unstructured information such as DGN, DWG, Word, Excel, Powerpoint, PDF

Document Service

Bentley Geospatial Server Key Innovations Spatial Indexing/Searching Service Ability to quickly find files based on multiple spatial and non-spatial criteria Background map support Projection Management Assigning spatial locations to documents and folders Text Indexing (Office, DGN, DWG, PDF) Feature indexing

Spatial Indexing/Searching Service

Bentley Geospatial Server Key Innovations Workflow Service Organization members need to work together in a structured, secured, collaborative way Workflow is a set of states (e.g. initial, design, 75% design, complete) successively traversed by an object For each state different security can be enforced on objects stored in the system For each state it is also possible to have specific communication enforced through s. The Federated System helps organization members get the right information at the right time in the right context
