Skyline offers powerful applications for generating, editing and publishing 3D terrain and urban model databases from a wide variety of data types.

TerraBuilder

TerraBuilder is a 3D terrain database creator with professional-grade tools for manipulating and merging orthophotos, DEM and DSM raster files of different sizes and resolutions. The resulting photo-realistic, geographically accurate terrain database (MPT) can be made available to local TerraExplorer clients or published to remote clients using the SkylineGlobe Server.

PhotoMesh

Skyline’s breakthrough PhotoMesh application fully automates the building of high-resolution, textured, 3D mesh models from oblique and nadir photographs and Lidar captured from street view, drones, UAV and airplanes. PhotoMesh results can be generated in standard 3D model (3DML, OSGB, DAE, OBJ), raster (Orthophoto, DSM, DTM) and point cloud (LAS) formats. The 3DML format can be transformed into powerful geospatial data that fully supports spatial operations and attribute queries, by loading it into TerraExplorer and merging it with classification information.

TerraExplorer Pro

TerraExplorer Pro is a powerful GIS tool for merging unlimited, geo-referenced 3D terrain, 3D mesh, Lidar, BIM, raster and feature layers into a 3D high-resolution, geospatial environment. The project and all its individual layers can be directly uploaded and published to SkylineGlobe cloud server from TerraExplorer. Through a single publishing operation, the project and its individual layers are made available to all TerraExplorer clients: Desktop, Mobile, and TE for Web, as well as standard geospatial clients. TerraExplorer Pro also provides powerful tools and a high resolution 3D environment in which to view, query, analyze and present geospatial data.
