RhinoTerrain： A powerful Digital Terrain Modeler

 

RhinoTerrain

 

A powerful Digital Terrain Modeler

The creation of a Digital Terrain Model (DTM) is a fundamental step in any study and development project.

RhinoTerrain™ offers all the functionalities necessary to anyone interested in 3D visualization of Digital Elevation Models:

• Efficient computation
• Perfect geometry and topology
• Optimization of raw data
• Edition and analysis of created models

 

NEW, ROBUST AND RELIABLE
Based on a completely new, robust and reliable constrained triangulation algorithm, RhinoTerrain™ is able to process very large data volumes.

The computation of a Digital terrain Model (DTM) can be performed on clouds of tens of millions of points from terrestrial scanners or LIDAR aerial lasers surveys and include an unlimited number of break lines.
