Skyline Adds TerraGo® GeoPDF® Production Capability to TerraExplorer® 3D Visualization Applications

TerraGo GeoPDF technologies will allow users to produce and distribute interactive, portable and intelligent multi-layer GeoPDF maps and imagery from the TerraExplorer environment.

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) April 17, 2012 -- Skyline Software Systems, Inc., a leading provider of 3D earth visualization software and services, has signed an international OEM reseller partnership agreement to add TerraGo® GeoPDF® maps and imagery production capabilities to its TerraExplorer® family of applications.

Skyline TerraExplorer is a broadly deployed critical visualization technology in defense and intelligence, public safety, security, transportation, utilities and urban planning markets. It fuses together massive and disparate data sets in real-time, enabling users to create and interact with customized, virtual 3D landscapes. Available on the Web or desktop environment, TerraExplorer provides rapid access to 3D geospatial data for a wide variety of applications ranging from mission planning and crisis response to asset management and urban design.            

Under the OEM agreement, Skyline will incorporate GeoPDF maps and imagery production capabilities into its TerraExplorer applications. TerraGo GeoPDF technologies will allow users to produce and distribute interactive, portable and intelligent multi-layer GeoPDF maps and imagery from the TerraExplorer environment.

Consumers of GeoPDFs maps created in TerraExplorer will be able to use the no-cost TerraGo ToolbarTM to add georeferenced notes, video, photo and geoform updates to every product. This functionality will greatly enhance the end user experience and enable collaboration within the enterprise, between organizations and disparate systems, peer-to-peer, to the field and back.
