This category applies to projects where users have taken core Bentley technology and extended or customized the technology in order to support an organizational workflow, resulting in quantifiable productivity improvements.

With nearly 16 million members, Munich, Germany-based ADAC e.V. is Europe’s largest automobile club. The club produces a comprehensive travel guide called the ADAC TourSet that includes maps and descriptions of points of interest. Each description has a link placed in the respective map to help the user easily find the geographical position of each point of interest. The ADAC TourSet covers 44 countries in Europe, North and South Africa, Australia/New Zealand, and North America.

To provide 300 individual tourist modules, ADAC must manage more than 1650 cartographic drawings and keep roughly 150 maps up to date. The maps are now produced and updated in a GIS using MicroStation and MicroStation GeoGraphics, along with car navigation data from NavTeq.
