civil feature definition

Feature definitions, like the former legacy style files are fundamental to Bentley civil users for the display of objects and standardization of designs.

Feature definitions:

  • Include properties used to define how a feature is to be displayed, annotated, computed, etc.
  • Can be applied to these three object types:
    • Point feature
    • Linear feature
    • Surface feature
  • Are typically customized by each organization/company
  • Expected to be created in advance and used to drive standardisation of designs across an organisation
  • Replace legacy Bentley style files of these types:
    • XIN (InRoads)
    • DDB, XML (GEOPAK)
    • PSS (MXROAD)
