 |
3D Global Terrain is the only OFF-LINE
3D platform that combines NASA imagery generated from Blue
Marble project, elevation data from Shuttle Radar Topography
Mission and more than 6.5 million of land markers with Cities
and Points of Interest into a relatively small but powerful
worldwide platform. GTerrain will allow you to visit any
place in the world, know the general topography, and load
and display Waypoints, Routes and Tracks from many file
formats. |
| |
| Main features |
| |
- Topography and Satellite imagery: GTerrain
has a full copy of the Blue Marble satellite imagery
and the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) Data
stored in an off-line database (local copy) allowing
you to use GTerrain without Internet connection. Both
Blue Marble and the SRTM have a fixed resolution of
~450mts per pixel, in order to maintain a relatively
low hard-disk space requirement of ~3GB. This important
feature will give you the possibility to use 3D Global
Terrain in field applications (using it on a Notebook
on the road).
- Multi-format file support: GTerrain
allows you to load and display Waypoints, Routes and
Tracks from many different file formats:
- KMZ files (Keyhole Markup Language)(kmz)
- KML files (Keyhole Markup Language)(kml)
- GPS exchange format (gpx)
- TomTom Navigator overlay (ov2)
- TomTom Navigator itinerary (itn)
- Magellan MapSend Waypoint/Route files (wpt)
- Magellan MapSend Track files (trk)
- Garmin Point of Interest (non encrypted only)(gpi)
- Palm Address Book files (aba)
- NMEA 0183 sentences files (nmea)
- SUUNTO Data files (sdf)
- Navigon MN6 files (rte)
- Navigon MN6 storage files (storage)
- Navigon MN5 files (rte)
- Navigon MN4 files (rte)
- iGO (comma delimited)(asc)
- Garmin POI (comma delimited)(csv)
- Magellan POI (comma delimited)(csv)
- Route66 (comma delimited)(csv)
- Navman (comma delimited)(csv)
- Place names: GTerrain has a full
catalog of 2,411,161 countries, capitals, cities, towns,
and even historical references and 4,252,852 of additional
points of interest like mountains, valleys, lakes, rivers,
structures, etc. The names update dynamically, by increasing
or decreasing in number according the user proximity
and altitude.
- 3D Engine: GTerrain uses First
Person Perspective (FPP), which renders the world from
the visual perspective of the user, in a realistic way
just as if he were really there. Particular focus was
put into the ease of usability, all one needs to control
GTerrain is a two button mouse and the arrow keys or
just a Joystick.
GTerrain was designed to run on recent PC hardware with
3D acceleration. Please refer to the download section
for more information on system requirements.
- Visual Tools: GTerrain comes with
a variety of visual guides that help the user's experience
such as latitude and longitude markers, as well as extremely
precise coordinate data, like geographic position, compass,
heading and tilt indicator, altitude and ground elevation.
