Editor User friendly, yet powerful, general-purpose GIS desktop application for data editing, mapping, modeling, and analysis, with built-in Python scripting. Docs Try Buy Free Viewer v5.86.0 was released 3 weeks ago. See what's new. The TatukGIS Editor is a professional, general-purpose desktop GIS application for geospatial data visualization, editing, creation, mapping, modelling, and analysis, providing the features and tools most GIS users require. TatukGIS Editor shares the same fuctionality as the Developer Kernel and actually contains the Developer Kernel for Python as its scriping engine. See Developer Kernel Description to learn more. The Editor also supports DK Enterpise features: advanced spatial databases including Oracle Spatial, MS SQL Katmai, PostGIS, and others BIM 2D/3D viewing Viewing Natively open and render geospatial data in 75+ vector, image, grid, and spatial database layer supported formats. File formats: SHP, MIF, TAB, GML, KML, JSON, DXF, DGN, DWG, GPX, OSM, Lidar XYZ, CSV, S57, IFC, VPF, CADRG, GeoTIFF, PNG, JPEG, JPEG2000, MrSID, ECW, IMG, PLY, GRD, FLT, BT, and others Database formats: PostGIS, Oracle Spatial & GeoRaster, MSSQL Server Spatial, ESRI ArcSDE & ArcSDE Raster, IBM DB2 Spatial Extender, Geomedia, OpenGIS SQL Layer, and others Protocol based (streaming): WMS, WMTS, WFS, and web tiles Viewing features include attribute data grid panel with SQL and spatial query tools that interact with the map, scale-based rendering, measurement tools, buffers, filters, and printing high resolution maps to PDF. Data Editing Create, edit, save (natively, so without format conversion), and export geospatial data in any of 35+ vector, image, grid, and geodatabase supported layer formats. Edit or create advanced spatial databases such as PostGIS, Oracle Spatial, MSSQL Spatial, etc. Features include editing map geometry and attributes, special editing and drawing tools, snapping, smoothing, simplification, unions and splitting, merging, scaling, rotation, data table import, database joining, and data translation for export to a different format. A topology corrector tool enables systematic clearing of geometry errors from vector layers, including overlapping polygons, holes between polygons, missed line intersections, and dangling nodes. Map Projects Open, customize, create, and save sophisticated projects that may be comprised of unlimited map layers in various data formats and coordinate systems. Comprehensive layer properties, legend, north arrow, and scale visual controls enable customizing the appearance of each layer, adding and removing layers, organizing sublayers and layer groups, setting the project coordinate system, and all other aspects of the map appearance to create sophisticated multi-layer map projects. Other features include advanced labeling, symbols for points, lines, and fills, built-in 1,000+ SVG map symbols library with road shields, unlimited line style possibilities, color ramps, pie and bar charts, transparency, binning and dynamic shape aggregation for simplified viewing of very large datasets, thematic/choropleth maps, and access to the TatukGIS hosted OpenStreetMap web tile server as a background layer. Coordinate Systems 5,000+ predefined coordinate systems with EPSG codes and OGC WKT definitions, U.S. State Planes, 150+ projections, user-defined coordinate systems, automatic layer coordinate system recognition, and efficient on-the-fly vector/raster layer reprojection between coordinate systems. Rectification Rectify distortions from aerial images, old vector maps, or CAD drawings and georeference the layer to a coordinate system. Rectification is performed on-the-fly and visible instantaneously. 3D Visualization Render 3D vectors, Digital Elevation Models (DEM), raster and vector layers draped over a DEM, flood simulation, light and shadow control, camera/scene control, volumetric lines and points, Z & M values, 3D object textures, and 3D "geological" maps involving multiple DEM layers. BIM (Building Information Modeling) IFC model 2D/3D display with preserved styling, enabling BIM integration in GIS projects. Built-in BIM Explorer provides browsing IFC file structure, turning on/off visualization of selected elements and categories, viewing attributes, etc. Geospatial Analysis & Operations Data classification methods and layer statistics are integrated features of the visual layer properties control in both the Editor and Viewer. Additional features organized under the Editor's Tools menu include advanced filters, raster mathematics engine, heat maps, vector-to-grid interpolation algorithms, point cloud-to-grid conversion, contouring, terrain profile, TIN, slope analysis, viewshed and AGL visibility analysis, Fresnel zone analysis, operation pipelining, topological operations, GPS tracking, etc. Scripting Built-in scripting environment for writing and debugging code (Python, Pascal, or Basic) can be used to modify (full menu redesign, dialog boxes, custom routines, command-line interface, etc.) or extend the Editor with additional functionality. Because the Editor's scripting environment is the DK for Python edition with the full TatukGIS Developer Kernel API, essentially any GIS feature or functionality can be implemented as an plug-in. Code created with the DK for Python can be reused without modification as Editor scripts, such as for deployment with the Editor outside the Python environment. Scripts are easily deployed to other Editor users. Databases Compatibility with most database engines and database layer formats. Support for advanced spatial databases includes creating new tables, using spatial operators for server-side spatial queries, utilizing server-side spatial indexes for fast queries, and database layer connection wizard. Features showcase Editing of a line feature. Attributes table is open. Legend control presents complicated styling.
