Geospatial Content Server

As part of Ansys DME Component Libraries, the Geospatial Content Server provides a comprehensive enterprise solution for hosting, processing, serving, and analyzing terrain, imagery, and other heterogeneous 3D data. In addition to a curated set of terrain, imagery, and 3D models, this geospatial content management system allows the external introduction of various common data types. The data is processed and available within your application for streaming visualization and analytical capabilities such as terrain analysis. Solutions built with Ansys DME Component Libraries can use this geospatial data solution.
