Loading Layers from SkylineGlobe Server (SGS)

SkylineGlobe Server is a private cloud solution that supports the client-server data delivery requirements of Skyline's 3D technology. TerraExplorer clients can load point cloud, KML, feature, elevation, imagery, 3DML, raster complex, TerraBuilder projects, and TerraExplorer projects loaded from SkylineGlobe Server. Feature layers can also be edited and changes saved to the data source. For more information on loading layers from SGS, see “Loading SkylineGlobe Layers” in the “Working with SkylineGlobe Server” chapter.
