Bentley PowerMap offers similar functionality to Bentley Map. It was designed for organizations that:
Have a desire to develop standalone third-party GIS applications as a member of the Bentley Developer Network.
Wish to implement a workflow or application that does not need the advanced 3D visualization and animation power of MicroStation or to run other Bentley applications.
Bentley PowerMap is an easy-to-use mapping application. It is highly customizable and uses the same XML Feature Modeling (XFM) platform as Bentley Map.
Bentley PowerMap provides a rich 2D or 3D map production environment. You can work in DGN or DWG files, natively read and reference SHP file formats, and import a wide range of industry-standard raster and vector file formats.
To assist your production workflows, a range of topological analysis tools are available. Like Bentley Map, the topology model is based on, but does not require, the Oracle Spatial topology model. Bentley PowerMap offers all the same topological analysis and spatial operations found in Bentley Map. Because Bentley PowerMap and Bentley Map are based on the same code base, they share many of the same features and functions including:
Intuitive Map Manager
XML feature modeling
Geospatial Administrator
Oracle Spatial editing
On-the-fly or persisted topology
Spatial analysis and presentation
Map generation and print preparation
Map projection and coordinate conversion
High performance display of industry standard image formats
Interoperability with other GIS for
