Global Mapper is a powerful and affordable geographic information system (GIS) application that combines a full range of software solutions for spatial data processing, and provides access to a number of formats used in the world of CAD, GIS, and engineering. Companies and organizations of any size will quickly see a significant return on investment through efficient data processing, accurate mapping and optimized spatial data management.
Equally well suited as a standalone spatial data management tool and as an integral component of an enterprise-wide GIS, Global Mapper is a must-have for anyone who works with maps or spatial data.
With a particular emphasis on terrain and 3D data processing, Global Mapper's out-of-the-box analysis functions include view shed and line-of site modeling, watershed delineation, volume measurement and cut and fill optimization, raster calculation, customized gridding and terrain creation, contour generation, and much more. In addition, the new Global Mapper Pro version was recently released, which incorporates all the functionalities of the previous LiDAR Module into the basic version of Global Mapper (point cloud processing, point classification, feature extraction terrain, etc) as well as new and powerful spatial processing tools, such as automated vectorization of satellite and terrain imagery and support for scripting in Python language, among others.
Global Mapper Pro complements all the features and functions of the basic version of Global Mapper with a diverse collection of professional-grade geospatial tools. Incorporating all the point cloud processing functionality previously available in the Global Mapper Lidar Module, the Pro version provides advanced users with numerous new and improved data processing and analysis tools, which complement and extend the functionality of the Lidar Module.
LiDAR tools include: Improved Pixels-to-Points ™ tool for creating photogrammetric point clouds from a series of images collected by drones, automatic classification of point clouds, automatic extraction of buildings, trees and poles, cross section display, point editing, custom scan or area feature extraction, 3D lines, much faster surface generation, LiDAR quality control and much more.
In addition to all the optimized LiDAR tools, you can also find in this version:
Powerful iOS and Android application for viewing and collecting GIS data. It utilizes the GPS capabilities of mobile devices to provide situational awareness and locational intelligence for remote mapping projects.
MangoMap is an online mapping service that provides a simple and efficient way to share geospatial data with anyone, on any device. Setting up an online map site through Mango requires no specialized web development skills or expensive servers and the entire process takes minutes. Beginning with v21, Global Mapper users can set up their own personal MangoMap account and publish map data directly from Global Mapper. Users have the ability to create online map portals, share maps with customers on the web, or publish maps on internal websites to share project information with fellow employees. MangoMap web maps can have multiple layers with legends and querying tools, providing a dynamic way to easily share geospatial information.
Integrating Mango and Global Mapper allows users to utilize the extensive tools and features of a traditional GIS while providing a stepping stone for sharing data from countless sources from a single platform.
Mango's online map platform is perfect for companies that span the globe or those that have a single office. The ability to share interactive maps with everyone, provides transparency and easy real-time collaboration.
