I've downloaded a series of Geotiffs (and the sister files) from USGS and imported them into my ConceptStation design. They fall into place on the terrain. I then export the files for terrain, dgn and alg for microstation. When I try to attach the raster images to the microstation file it places them in a different location away (very far away!) from the ConceptStation roadway that was designed.
How do I attach raster files correctly with the exported Microstation file from ConceptStation? I've used RASTER SETCONFIG USEGEOTIFFSISTERFILEON in the Key-In before I attach the raster images so that it uses the sister files I downloaded from EarthExplorer but the locations are not coincident with the alignment created.
Do I need to change the file geography coordinate system? Any help would be great!
Good to know, so problem resolved?
I was able to get it to work by setting the file to the geographic coordinate system and using GeoPriority of "Raster Header" to attach the raster images from USGS.

Can you upload your dataset here: https://bentley.sharefile.com/r-ra346a8a723147a29 I'll have a look.
I created a new file and assigned the same Geographic Coordinate System as I used in ConceptStation. When I attached the rasters with a GeoPriority of "Attachment" it still put them off in space. When I attached them with a GeoPriority of "Raster Header" they fell into place with the Conceptstation roadway I also referenced in. Hopefully this is the correct workflow moving forward!
Thanks for your help!
Have you assigned/checked a Geographic Coordinate System to your MicroStation file?
