Open Roads Technology OpenRoads enables the project delivery of road networks through constructiondriven engineering and delivers all the information needed to support operational worfklows. OpenRoads applications help redefine best practices for design and construction deliverables supporting the exchange of information throughout the project delivery lifecycle, to all participants of the project delivery team. 3 WWW.BENTLEY.COM 2016 Bentley Systems, Incorporated
MicroStation interface based Tools are based in MS task interface, no longer a separate dialog box Tools>tasks>civil tools The Civil data is in the dgn file. Allows the user to interactively edit and manipulate the data Data files are now part of the DGN. There is no need for the separate files. It s stored as part of the DGN. Allow for more dynamic interaction with a 3D model. 4 WWW.BENTLEY.COM 2016 Bentley Systems, Incorporated
MicroStation interface based, cont d MicroStation based standards (dgn libraries) With ProjectWise Integration, dgnlibs are managed via workspace SINGLE FILE VS. MULTIPLE FILES Situation: Do I need to do keep all the data from my project in a single file or can I use reference files? RECOMMENDATIONS You can keep all your data in a single file, which may be prudent if you have a very small project. However, if you have multiple users or a larger project, or you prefer granularity in your data, the use of reference files is encouraged. 5 WWW.BENTLEY.COM 2016 Bentley Systems, Incorporated
Project Explorer in MicroStation The Civil Model Panel contains a list of all the Civil Data contained in the design file and is the primary navigable view of the Civil Model Any design files attached to this design file also appears in the tree view. When present a plus (+) to the left of an item indicates additional information in the tree. 6 WWW.BENTLEY.COM 2016 Bentley Systems, Incorporated
Project Explorer in MicroStation The Civil Standards pane is used to manage the features, Civil Cells, design standards, graphic filters and project settings accessible from within the active design model. 7 WWW.BENTLEY.COM 2016 Bentley Systems, Incorporated
ProjectWise Integration When an InRoads product is running integrated with ProjectWise, all file operations will respond to ProjectWise first. This means that any command that needs to open or save a file will let the user have the opportunity to go to ProjectWise for that operation 8 WWW.BENTLEY.COM 2016 Bentley Systems, Incorporated

For integration of Civil 3D with ProjectWise, integration deals with three primary areas Data Shortcut / Data Reference workflows Integration of the Prospector Tree Support for the creation of surfaces 18 WWW.BENTLEY.COM 2016 Bentley Systems, Incorporated

Data Shortcut OPEN Mechanism CivilDSProj File Unzipped to XML Files Alignments Profiles Pipe networks Surfaces View frame groups Paths in XML Files are updated to the users specific working directory folder name 22 WWW.BENTLEY.COM 2016 Bentley Systems, Incorporated
Datashortcuts Project Editor Tool Graphical view of how the shortcuts are related to the source drawings 23 WWW.BENTLEY.COM 2016 Bentley Systems, Incorporated
Best Practices when working with data shortcuts Installing updates from AutoCAD has a tendency to break integration. Recommend to repair the integration module after applying updates Do not delete source dwg files from ProjectWise. The file gets deleted but the datashortcut still exists. This leads to the shortcut being not found in the prospector palate. Rename the original source location after import If Reference scan is run on the Data shortcut source files, Data shortcut.civildsproj file or files that have a companion file with a.mms or.grs the ProjectWise set will be lost. To correct this simply open the file in Civil 3D and the ProjectWise Integration will correct the Set (selfhealing). This behavior is due to the existing ref scan tool not being aware of Civil 3D sets. 24 WWW.BENTLEY.COM 2016 Bentley Systems, Incorporated
Advantages of ProjectWise Integration Having the project data in a single secure location Documents and files have an auditable history Network latency issue resolved due to working folder being local to user s system. 25 WWW.BENTLEY.COM 2016 Bentley Systems, Incorporated
