Open DGN File
A DGN file is a 2D/3D drawing created by various CAD construction programs, such as MicroStation and Intergraph Interactive Graphics Design System.
Also ESRI ArcGIS for Desktop is one of the software programs that use the DGN file, originally developed by ESRI (Environmental Systems Research Institute).
The DGN file can be saved in one of two formats, the Intergraph Standard File Format or the newer V8 DGN standard.
DGN files are used, in principle, to save designs for road, bridge and building construction projects, however another type of construction design is feasible.
Software to open DGN files
DGN files can be opened by Bentley Systems MicroStation and the free Bentley View program available from the same programmer.
The DGN format is also compatible with other third-party programs, such as Autodesk AutoCAD and IMSI TurboCAD.
