Improving the resolution of a raster image

Question

Hi guys, 
 I have captured an image in Microstation connect edition from bing. I noticed that, the captured image has poor resolution when imported as a raster. Is there any possibility to adjust the resolution of the raster image? Note kindly that, I had a look on the 'Raster Manager' but could not find any tool to improve the quality of the image. 
 
 Many thanks in advance, 
 Mamdouh

if your using bing as the back ground view as in the youtube you dont need to capture it just save settings before you close the file and it will always display provided you have internet access turned on.. now a few tips. 
 I would create a new 3d file drawing same coordinate system and ref attach your drawing and zoom to suit the coverage you want, now turn off your ref file drawing and use the google earth tools to display the aerial data you can look up how to capture google earth imagery in colour and have it match the mesh area in your 3d dgn.. takes too long to describe every step there is a bentley wiki on the full instructions. The capture resolution is pretty high provided you dont try to capture too big an area.. but it is google earth and may not be as upto date as bing no promises there ... but I prefer GEarth as once captured doesnt need internet, but Bing will always be the most upto date version everytime it loads from internet...this might be a bad thing.. depends on your needs.

If you have a license to use MicroStation Descartes you can use the Merge command in Raster Manager to capture an area of the Bing Maps imagery and save it to an image file. You can specify any resolution, but the best you can get is the base resolution of the Bing imagery. If you exceed that resolution you are just creating excessively large images and gain no benefit. 
 If you choose to save to a geo-located format, the image can easily be attached in the correct geo-located position through the Raster Manager. You can also generate a sister file for use in positioning formats like .jpg images in the correct geo-location. 
 NOTE: I don't know if this violates any of the Bing Map Terms of Service , so you should verify that it is ok before.
