What is a .BDI file extension?

.BDI is Pro/ENGINEER temporary data

The bdi file extension is used by Pro/ENGINEER (also known as Creo Elements/Pro) for temporary files.

Temporary files may be created by computer programs for a variety of purposes; principally when a program cannot allocate enough memory for its tasks, when the program is working on data bigger than architecture's address space, or as a primitive form of inter-process communication.

The bdi files are used for internal purposes of Pro/ENGINEER.

How to convert:

As far as we know, this .bdi file type can't be converted to any other file format. This is usually the case of system, configuration, temporary, or data files containing data exclusive to only one software and used for its own purposes. Also some proprietary or closed file formats cannot be converted to more common file types in order to protect the intellectual property of the developer, which is for example the case of some DRM-protected multimedia files.
