Orbit 3DM Feature Extraction

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Orbit 3DM Feature Extraction?

Orbit 3DM Feature Extraction allows you to complete simple and complex measurements, extract features, and perform advanced analysis using massive amounts of point cloud, imagery, textured mesh, and traditional GIS resources. In a single, user-friendly environment, you can make measurements and extract features using your aboveground, belowground, or indoor reality data acquired from terrestrial, mobile, UAS, oblique, and aerial mapping systems. Hardware-neutral, Orbit 3DM Feature Extraction gives you a full 3D 360° view of the world by enabling the real-time fusion of various reality data resources of any size from any system. Orbit 3DM Feature Extraction is available in three versions: Basic, Standard, and Pro.

Can you automate the measurement and extraction of objects?

Yes, Orbit 3DM Feature Extraction enables you to apply assisted, automated measurements of points, lines, and areas to extract features such as trees, curbs, road markings, guard rails, pavement borders, cables, and many others. You can accurately measure 2D and 3D coordinates from all your mapping resources. Various 3D measuring techniques can be combined by using point clouds, mesh, DEM, photogrammetry, and 2D and 3D reference planes.

What is the Floor Plan Builder?

You can start from scratch or save time and effort Floor Plan Builder, a feature that allows you to update existing floor plans. You can make slices through captured point clouds and easily update indoor or outdoor measurements. Improve your workflows and generate faster feature extractions with assisted feature extraction management capabilities that easily define and manage your layer themes.

How can you compare and analyze mapping data over a period of time?

Orbit 3DM Feature Extraction enables you to compare mapping data at a given point in time and analyze volumes over time. Additionally, you can detect clashes using an imported or designed shape and achieve your optimal slice view for in-depth analyses, as well as generate contour lines within a predefined area. Efficiently processes cross-sections along your trajectory and creates a profile along a 3D path. Once you analyze and document your mapping data, you can easily create reports.

How much does Orbit 3DM Feature Extraction cost?

A practitioner license of Orbit 3DM Feature Extraction Basic costs $2,301 USD, Orbit 3DM Feature Extraction Standard costs $5,246 USD, and Orbit 3DM Feature Extraction Pro costs $8,282 USD. Prices vary per region. While there are various types of licensing available, a common choice is the 12-month practitioner license offered through Virtuosity, Bentley’s eCommerce store. When you purchase through Virtuosity, you get a Virtuoso Subscription. This means you get the software and “Keys” (tokens) to redeem for customizable training, mentoring, and consulting services.
