SkylineGlobe Pro





SkylineGlobe Pro Is a powerful 3D visualization platform providing all the tools necessary for professionals that rely on accurate, dynamic and expressive geographic models and simulations. Here are some of the features and capabilities of SkylineGlobe Pro:


Draw tool

Add 2D Objects to the Terrain
The Drawing tool enables you to add different types of 2D drawing objects to your terrain. You can add text labels, image labels, polylines, polygons, rectangles, regular polygons, arrows, circles, ellipses, arcs and video clips.

Add 3D Objects to the Terrain
The Drawing tool enables you to add different types of 3D drawing objects to your terrain. You can add 3D Models, Point Cloud Models, Buildings, Boxes, Cylinders, Spheres, Cones, Pyramids, and 3D Arrows.

Add Dynamic Objects to the Terrain
A dynamic object enables you to add a predefined route to a 3D object, image label, text label or virtual object. Using this feature you can add motion to your 3D world. You can set the object’s motion path by setting a group of waypoints, or by connecting the object to an external set of files containing the object’s waypoints.



Add/Remove feature layers

Measurement tool

Terrain Profile Tool
The terrain profile tool displays the terrain elevation profile along a path, and related information on this profile such as maximum and minimum elevation values and slopes.

Viewshed Analysis Tool
The Viewshed Analysis tool provides you with a graphical representation of the view from any defined viewpoint, along a line or a sector, to an end point.

Threat Dome Tool
The Threat Dome tool analyzes and displays the area that is visible from a given point in the 3D View.

Line of Sight Analysis Tool
The Line of Sight Analysis tool provides a visual indication of whether specific locations in the 3D world can be seen from a selected position.

Best Path Tool
The Best Path tool calculates the best path between two locations on the terrain without exceeding definable climb and descent slope limits.





Perform terrain profile analysis

Layers tool

Add Feature Layers
SkylineGlobe Pro enables you to import feature layers from remote or local databases. Various file formats are supported through a set of external plug-ins. The following formats are supported:
  • SkylineGlobe layer file (.fly)
  • Google Earth layer file (*.kml/*.kmz).
  • ESRI Shape file (.shp)
  • Personal GeoDatabase (.mdb)
  • DXF file – (.dxf)
  • ASCII file
  • OpenFlight reference file
  • Oracle Spatial
  • WFS server
  • ArcSDE database

    Add Imagery Layers
    An Imagery layer is a geo-referenced, satellite or aerial image that overlays the terrain imagery. It enables you to add unlimited size, geo-referenced, satellite and aerial images directly to a TerraExplorer project. You can import the following raster imagery layers from your local machine or from a remote server. The following imagery formats are supported:
  • Skyline® Image MPU (Ii.MPU)
  • MrSid (SID)
  • ER-Mapper ECW ,JP2, J2k
  • Erdas Imagine (IMG)
  • Bmp, Tiff, iTiff, Gif, Jpeg, Jpeg200
  • NGA formats (CIB, CADRG, ADRG, Nitf)
  • Tile Text File (TLT)
  • Projection Text (PRJ)
  • Intergraph MFM raster (MFM) Server Formats:
  • ER-Mapper IWS Server
  • Web Map Server (WMS)
  • Oracle Image SDO_Raster

    Add Elevation Layers
    Elevation layer is a geo-referenced elevation raster that replaces the elevation data of the terrain database. The Elevation Layer feature enables you to add elevation information to a TerraExplorer project. You can import the following elevation layers from your own machine or from a remote server. The following elevation formats are supported:
  • Skyline® Elevation MPU (Ei.MPU)
  • Window Bitmap (BMP)
  • Dted (DT?)
  • USGS ASCII Dem (DEM)
  • USGS SDTS Dem (DDT)
  • Arc/Info Binary Grid (ADF)
  • Erdas Imagine (IMG)
  • NGA DTED (DMED)
  • Tiff Format (TIF)
  • Projection Text file (PRJ)
  • Intergraph MFM raster (MFM) Server Formats:
  • ER-Mapper IWS Server
  • Web Map Sever (WMS)
  • Oracle Elevation SDO_Raster
