UltraMap 5.0 now generates comprehensive DSMs and DTMs for export at upmost quality. Customers gain the best possible insight and control over their data throughout the entire value chain to create 3D spatial data products that meet the highest photogrammetric standards.

With the introduction of a completely new Digital Terrain Model (DTM) algorithm based on automatic semantic image segmentation and intelligent filtering, UltraMap 5.0 now generates comprehensive DSMs and DTMs for export at unprecedented quality. Additionally, several new features have been implemented to facilitate and speed up the data production process: From simultaneous DSM and DTM editing in one interface and simple re-processing for ortho products, to the full integration of Ortho Production in UltraMap Studio and new quality control tools like visualization of non-ground objects.

Optimization of CPU and GPU code and additional parallelization and streamlining of tasks provide faster processing times for large DSM, DTM and Ortho projects. The retooled workflow shortens QC and editing loops.

UltraMap now consistently allows ESRI Shapefile and GeoJSON file formats for import and export of vector data. For export, Keyhole Markup Language is also available. A new generic dialog allows management of vector polygons for several use cases including selection of tiles and definition of areas for DTM import.
