The Global Mapper Lidar Module Software Development Kit® is a powerful addition to the Global Mapper SDK. The Module provides developers access to advanced point cloud processing functionality, including the Pixels to Points® tool, which can process geotagged aerial images, usually collected with UAVs or drones, and use them to create a high-density 3D point cloud. Pixels to Points employs the principles of photogrammetry by deriving measurements from photographs and analyzing the relationship between objects in adjacent images to determine the three-dimensional coordinates of the corresponding surface.
The functionality included in this SDK enhancement is an extremely powerful, cutting edge point cloud processing capability and will enable developers to keep ahead of the curve with regards to point cloud and Lidar data manipulation.
Advanced Lidar functionality includes:
Lidar tools for editing and analysis
This advanced Lidar functionality is embedded in the standard SDK and is activated with an appropriate license file and agreement. As with the full version of Global Mapper, the SDK can be activated on a trial basis by requesting a temporary license for evaluation purposes.
