Hi,

got the inquiry few times by email so I thought it was worthwhile to mention we have a great course available to learn the latest Point Cloud processing capabilities as well as Descartes' Scalable Terrain Model.

This training, named Bentley Descartes for 3D Modeling,  was created by Inga Morozoff and is accessible on Bentley LEARN server.  

Happy Learning !

Ben

These are part of a set of images kindly provided to us by Alejandro Marambio of the University of Catalonia, Barcelona. 

The original images were created at a resolution of 4000x3000 and a layered approach was use…

I'd like to use this blog post to share some links to valuable resources for all things Pointools.

Bentley Pointools V8i will soon be with us, but currently we still sell Pointools Edit.  As such some of the material you will come across was made using Edit.  This does not mean that it is out of date,  just that the interface is different.  Anything based on Edit will be phased out in time, but this may take some months…
