3DM Desktop Core

New Features and Enhancements

  • New vector resources can be created with a specific pre-set configuration.
    A fixed set of attributes are added when creating a vector dataset or theme. The preset configurations are available for a Dynamic Symbols Dataset, a GPX Dataset and all semi-automated and automated extraction tools.
  • One single Measure Controller that can be used on any Map, Tab or View.
    This enhancement results in a simplification of the measurement sidebar and asset inventory as well as the ability to use 3D Measurements on Map 2D.
  • A new Database Resource can be created from the interface.
    An Orbit Database file (.odb) can be created from the Dataset List drop-down menu.
  • The part of the point cloud available in the Slice View can be exported.
    At export, the Concert Tool is used. This allows the user to choose multiple export options and formats.
  • A multiple parts measurement can be saved into individual features or as a single, multiple parts, object.
    This option is available in the 3D Hover settings and needs to be checked prior to saving the extracted objects.
  • Two new Measurement tools “Angle between 2 lines” and “Angle by 3 points” are available.
    Those measurements can be used in Map 2D and 3D and result in the coordinate of the intersection and the angle in degrees.
  • The .prj file is created when converting a vector resource to Esri Shape File format.
    This .prj file accompanies the .shp, .shx, .dbf and Orbit's .ord files.
  • Beta functionalities can be activated from the Start-up Preferences.
    The list is shown when hovering over the text. Modifying the Startup Preferences requires the application to be restarted.
  • ?


  • A Mapping run can not be opened via drag and drop if a Mapping procedure is open.
    A pop-up window asks to close the opened procedure prior to open another run.
  • The View Depth legend option for point cloud is now available to be used on Map 3D and in the Mapping Tab on 3D View mode.
  • The Convert tool allows setting the block-size of the point cloud when converting to .opc format.
    Next to the options High, Medium and Low density that include hard-coded block sizes, the user can choose a custom block size.
  • ?
  • ?

Layout

  • The rotation point on Map 3D is now indicated with an icon.
  • The default size of the Querry Builder got enlarged so all components are displayed.
  • ?

Bug fixes

  • Returning error messages after the drag and drop of a mapping run that contains an incomplete point cloud resource file does not require a forced application restart anymore.
  • ?
  • Selecting photo positions of a Mapping run on Map 3D is now possible.
  • Selecting a Vertical 3D area having a 2D area size of 0 is now possible on Map 2D.
  • Changing the application language from the Startup Preferences is now applied at the restart of the software.

3DM Content Manager

The 3DM Content Manager includes all 3DM Core improvements.

New Features and Enhancements

  • The same Task is can not be sent to the Tas Manager multiple times.
  • Adding a Task while the Task Manager is running is now possible.

  • ?
  • The 3DM Cloud Console can be opened from the 3DM Cloud Upload Sidebar.

Layout

  • ?
  • ?
  • The labels and translations of the 3DM Cloud Upload Sidebar are reviewed.

Bug fixes

  • BUG, Longer names of Mapping Runs resulted a flashing UI of Delivery sidebar
  • BUG, Maximize Map GL View stopped display of Textured Mesh
  • BUG, Merging and deleting point cloud selections via Ghost Cleaning resulted temporary point cloud rendering issues
  • BUG, Consolidate merged ghost cleaning projects

3DM Feature Extraction

The 3DM Feature Extraction includes all 3DM Core improvements.

New Features and Enhancements

  • RFN, Preset dataset configuration to create new Asset Inventory Themes

  • RFE, Copy rectangular volume measurement as feature into line or area vector dataset
  • RFE, Added default symbol library for Floor Plan Builder
  • RFE, Measure and Add shapes on Map 3D, before only possible from Horizontal or Vertical Slice View.
  • RFE, Zoom to openend ME Projects if Geographical Map CRS is used, before only applied for projected Map CRS

Usabilities
