Senior-engineer perspective
Put the software where it improves an engineering decision.
Bentley Descartes is a reality-data production tool for extracting, editing and integrating point clouds, reality meshes, raster imagery and terrain information into engineering CAD/BIM workflows.
Keep engineering data connected across model, analysis and delivery workflows.
Reduce repetitive manual transfer while preserving discipline-specific review and control.
Apply point-cloud, raster and reality-mesh processing where that capability directly supports the project decision.
Technical scope
Technical scope that matters to project delivery.
Only capabilities supported by the reviewed source-controlled product record are shown here. CTtec adds engineering context without reproducing Bentley marketing copy.
Point-cloud, raster and reality-mesh processing
Feature extraction and terrain/breakline workflows
Reality-data integration into CAD/BIM deliverables
Engineering workflow
Move from engineering inputs to a reviewable project outcome.
The sequence is assembled from the product's reviewed capability/application data and CTtec discipline vocabulary. It is a project-use model, not a claim that every project follows an identical process.

Product selection guidance
Select the tool around the governing project decision.
Selection guidance is CTtec engineering editorial based on the reviewed product scope. It is intended to support tool choice, not replace project-specific engineering judgement.
Choose Descartes when reality data must be processed into engineering-ready geometry and context.
For photogrammetric reconstruction itself use iTwin Capture tooling; for general CAD use MicroStation.
- Confirm the current Bentley system requirements and licensing terms before deployment.
- Validate project data standards, coordinate systems, units, and exchange formats during implementation planning.
