The Bentley DgnDb iModel Importer converts DGN V8-format
packaged i-models (.i.dgn) into the compressed DgnDb-format or BIM-format
(.imodel) iModels. The .imodel is compact and optimized for mobile apps, that
may contain business data and embedded documents. By default, iModels (.imodel)
are created next to the Package i-model location.
OpenUtilities Substation
includes Bentley DgnDb iModel
Importers to publish .imodel files of 1.6.x and 2.x versions. Bentley Navigator
CONNECT Edition versions up to Update 3 support i-model version 1.6. Whereas,
Bentley Navigator CONNECT Edition 10.2 and later supports both 1.6 and 2.0
versions. The following table lists the support of different i-model versions:
