SkylineGlobe Nudges Google
August 22, 2011
It’s surprising how many people will simply go for the big name geospatial visualization services like Google Earth and rave about how far our technology has come, without even realizing there are bigger fish in the sea. Directions Magazine, at least, recognizes one of the leading products out there with their article, “Skyline Software Announces the Release of New TerraBuilder and TerraGate v6 Products.”
SkylineGlobe Enterprise’s TerraBuilder and TerraGate programs boast features that enhance the performance and usability, following suit after the recent TerraExplorer upgrade to v6.
Notably, Skyline introduced the TerraCatalog as a supplement to Terrabuilder, allowing users to store and organize data sources.
In the article, Directions Magazine revealed the following:
With the…new MPT v3.0 terrain format, data production time [has] been decreased significantly (from prior versions) allowing faster handling of large imagery and elevation data sets and the new architecture allows users to better utilize distributing computing capabilities to share the processing load across multiple servers and processor cores.
The potential for using Skyline products even extends to enterprise level management and scalability with the newest TerraGate v6.
This suite of geospatial visualization, data fusion, and dissemination products offers far more than the average person even knows exists. Our population’s knowledge needs to keep up with our increasingly digitized world’s services. We think when one of the giants falls behind, the quickest way to regain technical initiative is to write a big check. That’s how Googarola came into being. Wait. That was about patents, lots of patents, some of which are of a certain age.
