I don't honestly know. I think it's a bunch of different ones including DGN, but I was thinking it's similar to projectwise.

its dgn with many layers under FileExplorer - very similar to Microstaion now than InRoads or GeoPack

Hi @runneals​ and interested folks!

We're investigating the ability to read DGN files produced by Bentley OpenRoads Designer and we're looking for a sample dataset containing ORD attributes such as properties under 'Physical' that we can share with our third party library provider to see if we can get support added for reading these attributes.

 

If anyone has a simple DGN file containing ORD attributes that can be shared with our third party library provider, please feel free to reach out to me at jovita.chan AT safe.com. This will help our team investigate whether we can support reading Open Roads DGN files. Thanks!


it's a .dgn but Bentley 'hide' data in it. Pipes for example present as a single line when FME reads it, but openroads will present it as a 3D model of a pipe.
