TerraGate - Overview


TerraGate suite is a family of tools designed to support the client-server data delivery
requirements of Skyline's 3D technology

This powerful network feature and terrain server technology efficiently streams massive amounts of 3D geographic and feature data to thousands of concurrent users, giving each user uninterrupted viewing.

Compliant to OpenGIS Implementation Specifications for WFS 1.0.0, WMS 1.1.1 and WMS 1.3.0
TerraGate suite is compliant with OpenGIS Implementation Specifications for:
  • OpenGIS® Web Feature Service Implementation Specification, Version 1.0
  • OpenGIS® Web Map Service Implementation Specification, Version 1.1.1
  • OpenGIS® Web Map Service Implementation Specification, Version 1.3.0


TerraGate Benefits

Give your users a smooth seamless viewing experience

The Terrain Service works seamlessly across variable bandwidths on the Internet and is not affected by latency or breaks in connectivity. Once users have received the initial scene in low-resolution, they can begin accessing the 3D environment without waiting for entire frames of data to display.

Make massive archives of data accessible for 3D visualization in minutes

You can save time and resources by skipping the 3D terrain database (MPT) creation and streaming the native data to clients, using TerraGate DirectConnect. Once an updated image or elevation source is available, it can be loaded in a TerraBuilder project and be immediately available for clients to work with over the network.

Manage your data sources and layers easily and efficiently

From the TerraGate and TerraGate SFS Managers, you control and monitor: server status, streaming layers and data sources and view performance and statistics.

Deliver map and image data to all OGC-compliant applications

You can share data with any application that reads the standard OGC WFS and WMS protocols.

Access, manage and organize your raster, feature, projects and other geographic assets

TerraCatalog is a catalog database that stores, organizes and manages connections your raster and feature layers and projects, located on a local disk, on the network, on Oracle or on an SQL Server. Terragate provides Web interface to the TerraCatalog database using the Catalog Service: Web (CS-W) protocol.

Dramatically enhance your users' experience

You can give your users the ability to dynamically add elements to the 3D world and generate specific targeted flying experiences with TerraGate Internet License Service.

Enable your users to collaborate and share 3D experiences with other users

TerraGate Collaboration Service provides hosting services for collaboration sessions between TerraExplorer users. All participants 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.
