Quick Terrain Modeler is a professional software for creating 3D images of terrain from LiDAR data. Although the capabilities of this program are not limited to LiDAR data and are also well-adapted to other data systems, its main ability is certainly revealed when working with this data format. LiDAR is actually a remote sensing technology that uses laser radiation to scan the ground and understand its three-dimensional structure. This system sends 16,000 light pulses per second in an area of approximately 15 cm by 40 cm towards the desired subject (land, forest, cars, road, buildings, lands, etc.) and performs prototyping operations by examining the pulses returned from that area. The collected data is saved in the LAS format.
By receiving this data, Quick Terrain Modeler software provides the ability to create a color 3D model of the existing data. The extensive capabilities of this program have enabled experts to work with significantly larger volumes of data; render larger models; analyze existing data more quickly, and ultimately export their project for a variety of products. The aforementioned advantages have enabled users of this software to create accurate 3D maps of terrain with maximum power in a simple and graphical environment. “Applied Imagery”, the company that produces this program, has simplified its user interface with each version of the software and, of course, offers many of the features requested by users. Quick Terrain Modeler has provided almost everything you need for 3D mapping of terrain.
