Historical context & positioning

  • Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC): MicroStation SE is used by architects, engineers, and contractors to design and build complex infrastructure projects, such as bridges, roads, and buildings.
  • Industrial design: The software is used by industrial designers to create complex 3D models of products and equipment.
  • Transportation: MicroStation SE is used by transportation agencies to design and manage infrastructure projects, such as highways, railways, and airports.

Running MicroStation SE today typically requires emulation or vintage hardware. Here’s what it needed at launch: microstation se

If your firm is still actively using MicroStation SE (rather than just archiving), you face serious risks: such as bridges
