Description:
Landscape is an essential software tool for editing large terrain point sets such as LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) files. It provides an advanced, efficient, fast, and easy to understand portal into the world of 3-dimensional LiDAR points. Landscape is equipped with utilities for editing, modifying, and classifying 3D points (point clouds) and for generating new data based on the points. Landscape’s tools can be configured by the user to enhance understanding of the data view. The editing tools in Landscape allow easy modification of point cloud data including a single point, all points in a project, or a selection built using Landscape’s sophisticated filtering tools. Included with Landscape is DAT/EM Drawing Tools, a simple built-in vector editor which may be used to collect and save vector features in a variety of formats. For more advanced digitizing tools, one or more companion DAT/EM Capture™ module may be added. Easily integrated with Summit Evolution™, point clouds in Landscape may be viewed in tandem with stereo imagery, and each data type may be used seamlessly with the other to manage, edit, and collect vector and point cloud data. FEATURES -View points in perspective stereo with many coloring and viewing options. Roam, zoom, pan, and rotate from any angle or distance. -Colorize the view of the point cloud by elevation, return, flight line, intensity, RGB color (orthophoto), or classification. -No limit to the number of simultaneous input files. Tools for controlling the detail on display. -Full 3D mouse support for navigating, selecting, and digitizing. -Support for mouse button programming and macro creation using DAT/EM Button Manager . -Edit and reclassify points. Output the revised point set to a newfile. -Digitize new 3D vectors such as breaklines based on the points. -View existing .dxf, .dwg, .dgn, or .shp vector files with the points. -Draw and edit objects with the built-in vector editor, DAT/EM Drawing Tools. -Optionally, digitize directly into AutoCAD, MicroStation, or ArcGIS using DAT/EM Capture. -Superimpose existing objects directly from AutoCAD, MicroStation, or ArcGIS. -Fully integrated with Summit Evolution, DAT/EM’s world-class digital photogrammetric workstation. -Superimpose Landscape’s points on a Summit stereo model for direct validation of your work.
