Our partnership with Terrasolid enables us to provide intelligent solutions based on point cloud data.

• TerraScan: Versatile software for processing raw airborne or terrestrial scanned laser data (LiDAR). TerraScan efficiently classifies data points, including ground, vegetation, and buildings.
• TerraModeler: A powerful tool for surface modeling and orthophoto generation from LiDAR and imagery.
• TerraMatch: Enhance accuracy by comparing and correcting laser data from overlapping flight or drive paths.
• TerraPhoto: Optimize workflows for imagery data processing.
• TerraBatch: Automate processing routines for large datasets.
• TerraStereo: Efficiently view, analyze, and extract features from 3D point clouds.

• Integrated Automation: Our solutions contribute to the seamless integration of planning, production, and business processes, resulting in significant time and cost savings.
• Bentley MicroStation Expertise: As expert users and customization developers of Bentley MicroStation CAD software, we understand the CAD platform on which Terrasolid products operate.
• Legacy Partnership: GESS has a longstanding history with Bentley, having been a Bentley Partner for over 10 years.

TerraPhoto

Ortho-rectification of Images and Data Visualization

TerraPhoto is specifically developed for processing images captured together with laser data during a survey mission. The software enables the production of rectified images and ortho mosaics based on ground model that has been extracted from the laser data.

The positioning of the source images can be refined by using tie points for image-to-image adjustment while ground control point can be involved for improving the absolute accuracy of the image block. 

With additional functionality such as colour adjustment options, the creation of selection shapes for several object types or areas (e.g. buildings, water), the inclusion of vector models for true-ortho photo production, TerraPhoto lets you create ortho photos of good positional and colour-coordinated quality.

Besides starting a camera calibration from scratch, TerraPhoto is able to convert calibration files from several mobile and airborne systems into its own camera file format. It reads numerous image formats, such as ECW, GeoTIFF, TIF, BMP, CIT, COT, RLE, PIC, PCX, GIF, JPG2000 and PMG.

TerraPhoto offers many tools for visualizing laser and image data together, partly in combination with tools from TerraScan and TerraModeler. This includes the opportunity of draping ortho photos on a ground model or on building roofs, the creation of wall textures from horizontally-looking cameras of mobile or airborne systems, as well as the display of rendered views. With TerraPhoto you can also create fly-through animations from laser and image data in an easy and intuitive way. Finally, the extraction of colour values from images or ortho photos to laser points can be performed with TerraPhoto and TerraScan.
