Bentley Map SS4 Bing Maps

Is there a help document on how to bring BING maps into Bentley Map SS4?

  • I've added a Video showing the step from generating the Bing Maps Key to creating the Workspace variable and attaching Bing Map using Raster Manager.



  • With Bing Map terms and conditions, are corporate users allowed to freely print and distribute Bing Map content in drawings?

    Is it possible (within terms and conditions) to use one key for all corporate MicroStation users instead of each MicroStation user to create their own Bing Map account?

    Thanks

  • I just cannot get Bing Map to load from View Attributes. Nothing happens. I have a coordinate system in the file and it works fine if I use Raster Manager to attach the Bing Maps.

    I'm running CE Update 7.

    Any ideas?

  • We've been looking at a similar issue today Krister.  Can you attach the file, or open a Service Request to help troubleshoot the problem?



  • I've been able to get Bing Maps to work (CONNECT U7) via Raster Manager, but not View Attributes. As we implement severe firewall restrictions (CONNECTION Client wouldn't even work), I've been working with our IT security folks to determine where the issues are. We *did* finally enable CONNECTION Client to function, and we began on working on the View Attributes issue, but then the holidays and other work have redirected my efforts. I had just "assumed" there were additional port issues with the View Attributes and it isn't a high enough priority at the time to warrant additional work. Interesting that it *may* not be an issue on our firewall but rather an issue with the application...

  • Bruce & Krister,

    Were you successful displaying Bing Maps as a MicroStation Background? 

    Bing Map Background Requirements:

    1. User must be logged-in to CONNECT Services
    2. DGN File must have an active Geographic Coordinate System
    3. Background Map Type must be set to Street Map, Aerial, or Hybrid



  • Have not pursued it further. Just tried again (View Attributes) and does not work. I AM logged into CONNECT Services and DO have a GCS active and did set the background to both street and aerial. No success.
