Skyline TerraExplorer
Create, visualize, analyze and share high-resolution 2D and 3D geospatial data.
Skyline – terraexplorer
A next-generation 3D GIS desktop viewer and creator that provides powerful tools and a high-resolution 3D environment in which to view, query, analyze and present geospatial data.
Display. Analyze. Share.
Explore, Analyze and Visualize the World in 3D
With TerraExplorer's robust and extensive capabilities and its increasing interoperability, you can create stunningly realistic 3D visualizations overlaying terrain with unlimited data layers, models 3D, virtual objects and much more.
View
Overlay terrain with images, 3D mesh, BIM, CAD, point cloud Lidar and vector layers, along with your own custom data. TerraExplorer allows you to create a digital twin to optimize the management and tracking of active.
Analyze
3D measurement and analysis tools—such as line-of-sight, changes and spatial analysis—make it possible to extract vital intelligence from geospatial data. This facilitates smarter decisions in urban planning, missions, inspections, and more.
Create
Add or edit features of points, polylines, and polygons by digitizing over the terrain, the point cloud or the 3D mesh model. Create accurate 3D visualizations of engineering and surveying sites that provide information topographical and geographical criticism.
Inspect
View and inspect your PhotoMesh 3D models (tower, bridge, construction site, etc.) from TerraExplorer, along with the source photos used to produce them. You can also create inspection layers to mark and measure areas (for example, requiring touch-ups) in your model 3D or in the photos in the Photo Inspector.

Consultation and editing tools
Create smart cities by integrating large volumes of digital data into a single platform to optimize design, planning and asset management. The combination of feature layers, point clouds and meshes georeferenced allows to digitize the 3D world with great precision. Additionally, viewing and editing of layers is supported, including spatial queries, styling by attributes, and operations such as merging, trim or export.
Advanced drawing tools
The 3D drawing tools bring your GIS visualizations to life, creating roads, power lines, pipes, fences and more. The particle engine allows you to generate realistic weather, light, water, smoke or fire effects. Additionally, mesh editing tools make it easy to detect and mark imperfections in PhotoMesh.
