Skyline Software Systems

3D Visualisation with SkylineGlobe
Geographx is proud to present a new generation of 3-dimensional earth visualisation software for desktop, mobile, and web. As the New Zealand distributor of SkylineGlobe, we offer a comprehensive and cost-effective means of presenting and streaming geospatial data in an interactive, dynamic virtual environment.

A virtual environment is a digital representation of the real world, one that you can move around in and interact with. Businesses can use SkylineGlobe to create their own virtual world using their own data. Within this world they can simulate hypothetical or proposed scenarios and undertake complex analysis.

The development of Skyline technology has been largely geared to meet the needs of the defence and intelligence communities. It also has application across a range of civil industry sectors, including engineering and infrastructural development and design, urban and regional planning, environmental management, emergency services, mining, education, and tourism.

Detailed object models include built structures, vegetation and vehicles
