About the Tools
TerraExplorer Pro Tools are a set of external tools that communicate with TerraExplorer Pro using the TerraExplorer API and provide an extended set of features to the user.
The following tools are available from the Tools tab.

Description |
|
Takes a snapshot of the current 3D Window: § Opens the snapshot in a new window. § Saves the snapshot to a file. |
Allows the user to share an interactive Fly session over the network. |
|
Extracts and creates a subset of a local or remote terrain database on the user’s local computer. |
|
Extracts and creates a VRML model from a local or remote terrain database that can be displayed in VRML viewers, 3D printing etc. |
|
Extracts and creates a Zebra Imaging model from a local or remote terrain database, which you can use for producing 3D hologram images. |
|
Creates simple and/or customized objects including markers, freehand lines, Mil-Std-2525b symbols, and urban designs. |
|
Creates multiple instances of the same object along a line or inside an area. |
|
Creates a power line by placing power poles along a user-defined path and connecting them with power lines. |
|
Creates a pipeline along a user defined path. |
|
Creates fences and walls in the precise dimensions, shape and texture you require. The output can be saved as a TerraExplorer group of objects or as a feature layer (shapefile). |
|
Assign timespan tags to groups. Determine whether objects within each subgroup display successively, each for a fraction of the total timespan, or whether all objects in each subgroup should hide and display simultaneously. |
|
Determine an appropriate layer block width for efficient streaming of layers. |
|
Display the photos used to generate a 3D PhotoMesh model so you can view and inspect any section of your model (tower, bridge, construction site, etc.) without distortions or filters. Photo Inspector makes it easy to navigate within the model and between the model and its associated photos, providing real world coordinates for each photo pixel, so you can find the best photos for each area of the model. The Photo Inspector also provides a set of drawing and measurement tools to mark areas and locations on the model and generate a detailed report with all inspection details. |
|
Display the TerraExplorer 3D view as a lifelike 3D hologram that can be viewed in the HoloLens 2 immersive headsets. The hologram is displayed on a virtual table whose dimensions can be customized and whose location is determined simply by the placement of a QR code. |
|
Package custom tools, licenses, start pages, ribbon configurations, options settings, and data libraries into a TEZ zip file for easy distribution to TerraExplorer users. |
