Technical Information

Before you start constructing a terrain, you need to gather the following information:

• Where the terrain will physically reside

• What the data sources are

• How the data will be used to define the surface

• Projection information including horizontal and vertical coordinate systems

• Nominal/Average point spacing of the measurements

• Accuracy or resolution requirements across a range of scales

Not every one of these has to be known with absolute certainty. The average point spacing and vertical accuracy requirements can be estimated if necessary. A known vertical coordinate system, while recommended, is not required. The ArcGIS 3D Analyst extension license is required to build a terrain dataset.

In collaboration with Esri, IGround uses ArcGIS Pro which is ahead of all other software's on the market. ArcGIS Pro supports data visualisation, advanced data analysis, authoritative data maintenance in both 2D, 3D and transforms all the data into maps and actionable info. Using ArcGIS platform ensures both fieldworkers and office staff use the same authoritative data to reduce errors, boost productivity, and save money.

How ArcGIS works?

One single application brings all different data sources into one project and will provide full control when changing design data into construction information.

Compatible with different machine control systems

Using AcrGIS Pro is the perfect add-on for machine operation, with 2D it provides the machine with the absolute position on site and with 3D, the same data is used in the field and office, increasing data quality and efficiency. Using the software your design data will be sent to all of your machines and sensors from one package. The software supports a range of machine control systems and measurement sensors
