Key Features
Raster Images
Display and manipulate imagery of all kinds: satellite images, aerial photos, digital orthophotos, street and topography maps, DEM / DTM, digital vector maps and live or recorded video • Compare images in multiple linkable windows • Rapid display of images of virtually unlimited size (hundreds of Terabytes) • Real-time accurate re-projection of layers • Directly open and display over 100 file formats and standards • GeoTIFF, Jpeg2000, ECW, MrSID, DEM, NITF, IMG, BMP, PNG and more • Display Internet based layers such as Open Street Map and NASA Blue Marble • Display remote WMS layers • No preprocessing needed • Imagery is opened directly with no need to import or process the data • Automatic generation of multi-resolution (pyramids)

Presentation
Intuitive and smooth navigation using mouse, keyboard or joystick • Panning, zooming, and 3D rotation • 3D world with perspective camera (scene tilting and fly-through) • Animated roaming and fly-through • Multiple views and ports, full-screen support • Overlaying of scale-bar, crosshair, 3D compass and magnifying glass • Overview map • Location geo-search (powered by GeoNames) • Geodetic accurate distance and area measurement tools • Application can work through Remote Desktop terminal and Citrix virtualization

Image Processing
Real-time image enhancement and histogram manipulation • Brightness, Contrast and Gamma adjustment • Levels adjustment • High-quality sharpening • Advanced histogram curve adjustment • Histogram equalizer tool to precisely control image exposure • Transparency and masking • Multispectral processing (per-channel adjustments) • High dynamic range (HDR) up to 16 bits per channel • On-the-fly atlas shading and hill shading for DEM data

Vector Data
High quality rendering of vector layers • High-performance ESRI shape file support • Extremely fast file open and level of detail generation • DBF file and metadata retrieval • Open huge shape files (more than 200MB) with no preprocessing • Open layers from local files or from remote shared folder

Annotations
Extremely high-quality visualization and editing of annotation layers • Save and load annotation layers as KML or KMZ files • Large number of available annotation kinds and geometric shapes • Adjustable placemarks with labels • Open 3D models of various formats • 3-axial position on a 3D terrain

Registration and Re-projection
On-the-fly re-projection • Real-time geodesic re-projection of raster and vector data • Support for coordinate-system and datum conversion • Seamless display of layers of different UTM zones and datums together in same scene • Over 5000 supported reference systems • Support for well-known-text (WKT) projection definitions and EPSG coding

Catalog
Cataloging of layers of all kinds (raster, vector, elevation) • Support for large number of layers (10,000s) • Overlaying of geographic bounds of layers • Filtering by name, region, kind, and dates

Terrain
On-the-fly draping of all kinds of imagery on terrain • Support for high-resolution elevation files in standard formats • Support for extremely large elevation layers • Re-projection of elevation • Adjustable lighting and shading • Dynamic terrain exaggeration • Create a path profile and visibility viewshed
