What is the Bentley Geospatial Server?What is the Bentley Geospatial Server?

• Geospatial Server is an Enterprise GIS• Using a unique Federated Information Management approach.• The idea is simple:

• Index rather than convert• Find rather than search

• Allows managing, indexing, editing, and plotting of :• Structured information, fixed schema

• Spatial Database, DGN/XFM, Shapefile, …

• Unstructured information, no schema• Raw DGN, DWG, Word, PowerPoint, …

Oracle Spatial Topology ModelOracle Spatial Topology Model• Persistent topology model in a standard RDBMS• Explicit spatial relationship existing among features• Based on topological primitives:

• Nodes, Edges, Faces• Each topological primitive is stored once in the database

• Each topological primitive can be associated with one or more features. For example:• An edge may be associated with two adjacent county

boundaries• An edge may be associated with a land parcel and a river

• Shared Editing is easier• Analysis is done using topological algorithms, using

persistent relationships

AES Torino-ItalyAES Torino-Italy

• Large Italian utility company specializes in gas distribution and district heating• Web based application is being developed for accessing the Geospatial

Connector back end for extraction/modification (in MicroStation)/posting • This custom application is defined such that:

• Oracle Spatial stores the final information on the network and other company assets.

• The Geospatial Server is used as the back end for extraction and posting in long transaction mode.

• Geo Web Publisher is interface to the data editor that views the spatial database using a web based front-end (i.e.: direct connection to the database via GWP server). The data editor decides what extents to work in and performs an extraction.

• MicroStation is used for editing of the extracted data. The editing session can last from hours to days depending on the work order.
