Import KML option in MicroStation

We have seen the capability of MicroStation V8 to export vector data to Google earth Kml/Kmz files. We have also explored an option to import Image from Google earth.

 I would like to know if there is an import option available to seamless bring in the vector (KML) layers from google earth directly into Microstation/Bentley map environment.

 This functionality would definitely complete the worflow lifecycle in an Integrated Mapping-Google Earth Environment.

  • This would be a useful function. I find every now and again that a range of no mapping professionals from smaller companies pass along data as KML/KMZ files; Environmental consultants, infrastructure planners. I either have to capture google earth images - register and re-trace in MicroStation - or get back to them and request a dxf file. Not ideal.
