Mac 3d: COMPUneering releases SimuTerra, v1.1 its newest digital terrain modeling program for Macintosh

COMPUneering Inc., of Toronto, Canada, has just released SimuTerra™ version 1.1, the company's newest digital terrain modeling program (DTM) for architects, engineers, surveyors, landscape architects and other AEC and design professionals.

SimuTerra 1.1

SimuTerra 1.1 is compatible with other 3d modeling and CAD programs and can import data, create a terrain model from that data, and export the final surface in a total of just three steps. Design professionals take raw topographic data, manipulate the data while viewing the resulting DTM in real time (in both 2D and 3D). It can then be exported for use in other modeling or rendering programs.

"...SimuTerra...contains the complexity needed to create contours of difficult terrain; to create existing and proposed surfaces with input from text files; and to create output ranging from dynamic 3D modeling to contour maps for construction drawings", says Christopher A. Brown of Hoffman Engineering in Santa Barbara, California.

SimuTerra Pro costs $200USD while SimuTerra Standard cost $100USD. There is a free trial version available at the company's website: www.compuneering.com
