Mstn CE U7 introduced the ability to import 2d map info into Mstn from Bing.
Vue has also introduced a cool way to extract 3d terrain from Google Earth/Maps(?).
I was wondering if there is way to import 3d terrain and building meshes from Bing / Google Earth / OpenStreetMap?
This would be a really really useful time-saver for Mstn users and impressive demo jock material.
I've used ConceptStation to bring the Mesh data into the ConceptStation file and then I've exported that to Mircrostation/OpenRoads.
Nice!
I have no experience with C-Station. Does the .osm import also work for buildings?
Hopefully, the code is already available and just needs to be hooked up in Mstn...
Yes it imports standard buildings but not all(churches etc) also it does not honor OSM 3D Buildings roof attributes.

You can import Google Earth terrain as mesh using tool from Geographics toolbox - Capture google earth image.
