Terrain Tools
Ideal for 3D site design, stockpile volume calculations, mine surveying, quantity takeoffs, pad and pond design, geological mapping, surface contouring and visualization, and landfill site design. Includes functions for: surveying, coordinate geometry, image manipulation, digital terrain modeling, contouring, volume and earthwork calculations, design, grading, visualization and report generation. Create surface models from large LiDAR and UAV datasets. Have complete control over your point data thinning functionality. Thinning to polygons, corridors, coordinates regions, or exterior regions. Import and management of a variety of survey and file formats, including: total station, LiDAR, ASCII, DWG, DGN, USGS DEM, LandXMl and image formats (TIFF, BMP, JPG). Total station data can be included with automatic control of linear features, breaklines and symbology. Import georeferenced background imagery from our Live Maps tool.

Vecten Desktop
Vecten Desktop is LiDAR point-cloud classification software for airborne and UAV survey data. It organizes work into local projects and blocks, accepts LAS, LAZ, and COPC inputs, and produces classified point clouds with review layers and attributes for production checks and downstream handoff. VGround classifies ground, bridge decks, and noise; VClassify adds vegetation and buildings; and VUtilities adds wires, poles, and towers for utility corridors. Surveying, mapping, engineering, and utility teams can select a module according to the output classes needed for terrain extraction, semantic classification, infrastructure review, or corridor asset work. Classification runs on a workstation without requiring cloud upload for inference. Vecten Cloud is also planned as a browser-based companion, with its waitlist open.

FugroViewer
FugroViewer is a robust, easy-to-use freeware designed to help users make the most of their geospatial data. We have developed it for use with various types of raster- and vector-based geospatial datasets, including data from photogrammetric, lidar, and IFSAR sources. FugroViewer 3.5 is available for download. FugroViewer now reads files up to six times larger, with improved graphics handling to decrease the rendering time of data and increase efficiency. FugroViewer supports the latest open file format for lidar data storage and delivery. Display elevation and terrain model data in standard ortho, 3D perspective, and cross-section/profile views. Display GPS time and RGB value, if the information is available. Color TINs by elevation using blue-to-red earth tone, or intensity values. Overlay imagery and vectors onto your 3D elevation and terrain datasets. Examine lidar point clouds by classification, flight line, return number, or source ID.
