RhinoTerrain

rhinoTerrain

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

Unique, robust and reliable

Based on a completely unique, robust, and reliable constrained triangulation algorithm, rhinoTerrain is capable of processing very large volumes of data.

A Digital Terrain Model (DTM) can be calculated from clouds of tens of millions of points obtained from terrestrial scanners or LIDAR aerial laser surveys and can include an unlimited number of break lines.

rhinoTerrain guarantees :

Computing power
Geométric accuracy
Optimization of incoming data
Editing and analysis of created models

A set of powerful features
