Click to Download the GSA Symbology Integrator
Tool overview
At a high level, this tool will allow the user to do the following functions:
1. Take an XML Data Schema exported from ESRI and create a Bentley Map XML Data Schema
2. Take any Bentley Map XML Data Schema and apply an A/E/C CAD Symbology spreadsheet.
- note:Function 1 above not a prerequisite of Function 2:
- Symbology can be applied to any Bentley Map XML Schema
Results: A unified geospatial engineering environment where all elements are both:
Geospatial & CAD Standard Compliant
Details
The Bentley Symbology Integrator was originally designed to load the SDSFIE ESRI Geodatabase XML downloaded from http://www.sdsfieonline.org/ and create a Bentley Map XML Schema file. The tool will also take the Bentley Map schema file and apply a mapping spreadsheet with A/E/C CAD Symbology to the Bentley Map Schema (see included sample: BentleyMap-SDSFIE-AEC - Symbology Mapping.xlsx). This results in a fully complaint SDSFIE (data) and A/E/C Cad (symbology) Bentley Map environment which allows the user to work in an unified engineering / geospatial environment and optimize the data sharing process between civil/engineering design and the owner/operator community.
