OpenCities Map CONNECT Edition Help

3D Smart Editing

3D Smart Editing is only available with the OpenCities Map Ultimate edition of this product.

OpenCities Map supports 3D data creation and editing, which is primarily used for urban modeling purposes. OpenCities Map leverages the 3D solid modeling tools provided by MicroStation while preserving property information in the OpenCities Map XFM format.

OpenCities Map stores 3D polygon features as polygon collections. Tools are provided to convert polygon collections to 3D Smart Solids for editing with MicroStation while still maintaining property data.

The 3D solid modeling placement, modify and smart editing tools can be found in the Map Modeling workflow.
