by | Nov 21, 2019

AUGUSTA, Maine – Blue Marble Geographics® has released new versions of its GIS and point cloud editing software development kits ” the Global Mapper SDK and LiDAR Module SDK. The version 21 SDKs incorporate enhancements from the recent releases of the desktop versions of the software, including the addition of the LiDAR Module’s photogrammetric tool ” Pixels-to-Points® ” for generating point clouds from drone and UAV images.

“Blue Marble is committed to meeting the needs of UAV customers, and the addition of the Pixels-to-Points tool to our SDK is one more step towards that goal,” said Patrick Cunningham, Blue Marble Geographics President. “Third-party developers are now able to utilize and customize our photogrammetric tool in their own software, allowing them to output orthoimages, meshes and 3D point clouds in their own products or projects. We’re very excited to see what our SDK customers will do with this technology!”

For more than 20 years, the robust and affordable GIS software Global Mapper has been renowned for its ease of use, with drag and drop file-opening and support for more than 300 file formats. The Global Mapper and LiDAR Module SDKs enable developers to add the functionality of Global Mapper and the LiDAR Module to their own applications and to create custom toolbars and extensions for the desktop version of Global Mapper.
