Data Fusion
Combine aerial photos, satellite images, geographic terrain information, digital
elevation models, vector data, and feature data of various formats and projections,
as well as unlimited size and resolution to create a photo-realistic 3D environment.
Data is compressed to minimize disk storage and network bandwidth.
Accessing Enterprise Data
Skyline directly supports a long list of file formats and server protocols (i.e.
Shape, KML/KMZ, Oracle,WFS/WMS, ArcSDE, PostgreSQL, SQL Server 2008 and many more).
Optimized Cache Databases
SkylineGlobe restructures the 3D data into optimized cache databases, providing
fast loading and efficient data streaming to multiple users.
Dynamic Updates
SkylineGlobe enables you to dynamically and instantly update imagery and elevation
data, without rebuilding the entire database.
Streaming from Native Sources
SkylineGlobe servers allow you to skip the terrain and feature database creation
and stream data in its native form directly from your enterprise data sets.
Powerful Servers
SkylineGlobe’s client-server model has been optimized to handle thousands of concurrent
users accessing virtually unlimited sized databases.
Scalability
SkylineGlobe technology is infinitely scalable, allowing multiple servers even in
different locations to simultaneously stream vast 3D databases. In multi-processor
environments, the load is automatically shared between processors.
Distributed Data Management
SkylineGlobe technology fuses data on-the-fly from multiple remote servers chained
together within one or more organizations.
Flexible Deployment Options
Use SkylineGlobe software in the way that best suits you:
- Integrate a 3D environment into web applications or into desktop applications.
- Work in a networked or disconnected (off-line) mode.
- Make content available to the public or restrict access to secure networks and authorized
users.
Open Standards
SkylineGlobe TerraGate server provides WFS and WMS services, enabling you to share
all your map image and feature data with any application that reads the standard
OGC WMS and WFS protocols. TerraExplorer WMS, WFS and KML loaders enable you to
directly load raster, elevation and feature layers from enterprise or Internet OGC
sources.
Customized Solutions
Using SkylineGlobe’s comprehensive API, you can freely design and develop 3D geospatial applications based on SkylineGlobe technology and data.
- Robust API enables power users to easily customize 3D content, layers, tools, and
functions
- Powerful COM based API designed for Windows developers
- Easy to use JavaScript classes optimized for web developers
- A set of SkylineGlobe ActiveX controls for your customers to embed in their applications
- Full API documentation and developer community provides better support
Wide Range of Geospatial Data
Build rich 3D visualizations by creating, importing, manipulating and editing a
wide range of geospatial data:
- GIS feature layers
- Raster and elevation layers
- 2D objects
- 3D textured objects
- CAD models
- Buildings
- Dynamic objects
- Video clips
- Point cloud models
Localization
All user interface text is stored in resource files so that you can easily translate
it into your local language.
Subterranean Exploration
Add objects, explore and query the subsurface layers of your terrain.
GPS Sensor Feed
Integrate live GPS sensor feed from multiple sources for 3D visualization of real-time
situational awareness.
Video on Terrain
Integrate live video feed directly into the 3D environment.
Measurement Tools
SkylineGlobe software provides you with tools for measuring distances, coordinates
and areas in the 3D world.
Terrain Analysis tools
Our terrain analysis tools include Line of Sight, Viewshed, Best Path Analysis,
Terrain Profile and Threat Dome.
Collaboration
SkylineGlobe software supports real-time collaboration sessions, in which users
can fly-through and study a 3D environment together, and make additions or changes
to the 3D environment that will be seen by their partners.
Multiple Coordinate Systems
Both client and server support fusion of data in different coordinate systems, with
reprojection on-the-fly.
Indoor Navigation
Use SkylineGlobe’s Indoor Editor tool to view and freely navigate the interior of
3D structures, such as buildings and tunnels.
