Data Import Plug-ins
RoadMAP from TerraSim

Optional data import plug-ins for TerraTools Core are licensed separately and are fully interoperable with all TerraTools processing. For a list of formats supported by TerraTools Core, see the product information page.

This plug-in allows users to import and process all standard National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) vector, raster imagery, and DTED formats into a TerraTools project. Vector data includes, but is not limited to: VMAP, DFAD, DNC, UVMAP, and UFD. Raster formats include CIB and CADRG. All DTED level formats are supported. In addition to product specific import nodes, the NGA plug-in provides TerraTools process nodes to support FACC feature name mapping and TerraTools OmniWizard™ processing to automatically read layers stored in NGA Vector Product Format (VPF).

This plug-in allows users to export a TerraTools database directly into an LMIS S1000 assembly to support dynamic database generation for JointSAF. This exporter supports the export of terrain polygons, feature vectors, and 3D models. The S1000 assembly tool is used to create the data structures required for DT-SIM and the other JointSAF dynamic terrain components. Customers can use this exporter in conjunction with TerraSim's CTDB exporter to create JointSAF 8.7 CTDBs that correlate with the content produced by the S1000 plug-in.

TerraSim has been a SEDRIS associate since 1999 and offers a SEDRIS export plug-in to our TerraTools product. TerraSim's SEDRIS exporter has been adopted for use by U.S. Army Future Combat Systems (FCS) and for U.S. Army WARSIM.
