How to convert Okino Transfer File (.bdf) to STK (Satellite Tool Kit, Systems Tool Kit, MDL)?


PolyTrans|CAD+DCC performs mathematically precise CAD, DCC/Animation, GIS and BIM 3D file conversions into all key downstream 3D packages and file formats. Okino software is used and trusted throughout the world by many tens of thousands of 3D professionals in mission & production critical environments, backed by respectable personal support directly from our core development team.

     

Okino Transfer File

The Okino .bdf file format is the native format used by Okino's PolyTrans and NuGraf products. It is a "snap shot" of the core Okino 3D scene graph database and in essence is a super-set of the capabilities of most 3D files formats. It is the preferred and best file format to use when converting data between 3ds Max (via the PolyTrans-for-3dsMax native plug-in system) and Maya (via the PolyTrans-for-Maya native plug-in system).

     

STK

Systems Tool Kit (formerly Satellite Tool Kit), often referred to by its initials STK, is a multi-physics software application from Analytical Graphics, Inc. (an Ansys company) that enables engineers and scientists to perform complex analyses of ground, sea, air, and space platforms, and to share results in one integrated environment. 'MDL' is the native file format of the STK software.

Okino has been a fundamental and long term 3D file conversion partner to AGI since 1998. Originally the conversions from Okino software and into STK were done by exporting LightWave .lwo files, then COLLADA .dae files as of 2008, and in now recent years glTF files.
