GeoReferencing
When MicroStation is aware of the geographic location of the data in a model, it can very conveniently reference data that is also geographically aware. Because MicroStation knows the location and orientation of both models, it can calculate the coordinates…
Is it possible to create new custom CGS?
I work on a linear infrastructure project that uses a custom survey datums that closely resemble existing datums available in the Library with little adjustment offsets.
Is there anyway to edit the CGS in Microstation library to add new ones so our…
Relationship between: File Settings > Working Units: (a) Linear Units vs (b) Advanced Settings Resolution vs (c) GCS defined units (Geographic Coordinate System)
Hey All,
Just wanted to ask if folks out there can define the 3 types of units of measure that are displayed in Design File Settings and GCS. Please define what the Linear Units are, the Advanced Settings Resolution units are, and what the GCS units…
Assigning A Geographic Coordinate System
Structure-scale Data
The first case, often used when designing buildings, stadiums, industrial plants, and other structures, is to use a coordinate system that is most convenient for the structure. In that case, the design team might elect to place…
[MicroStation V8i SS4] Bing maps incorrect rotation after applying helmert transformation
Using MicroStation v8i SS4 08.11.09.829.
I have a DGN file with a GCS in it. I am using a Helmert transformation to define a rotation of -4.7641666 degrees and a scale of 1:500000. The Helmert transformation parameters therefore become:
Helmert A…

Have you ever looked for a Geographic Coordinate System (GCS) that is simply not available? The list of Geographic Coordinate Systems in MicroStation V8i is static and “as-is”. The development to add any additional…
Make Geographic Coordinate System coordinates available to Text Fields
A Geographic Coordinate System (GCS) provides a great way to impose a geographically-accurate coordinate system on your DGN model. The GCS has been part of MicroStation since V8 i , and continues in CONNECT. There's probably a GCS already available for…
[CONNECT] Annotate Point using Text Field with GCS
I've annotated a point using an associated text element that contains a text field:
The text field displays the origin of the point. Consequently, if you move the point then the coordinates update automatically.

Convert Northing/Easting in distance to Latitude/Longitude Angular
The purpose of this wiki is to provide instructions to convert an existing GeoReferenced MicroStation drawing using cartesian coordinates (X, Y, Z) to non-projected, Latitude/Longitude GeoReferenced drawing with angular units. It is assumed the Geographic…
Geographic coordinate system missing
Hello,
I'm currently working in a big railway project that uses a bespoke GCS.
I was following a forum post that explaining how to create a transformation. In the process the seed file "UserOverrideGeodeticTransformSeed.asc" needed to be altered.…
