Hallowell, Maine — February 24, 2020 — Blue Marble Geographics (bluemarblegeo.com) is pleased to announce the release of version 22.1 of the Global Mapper Lidar Module® (bluemarblegeo.com/lidar-module).

 The Lidar Module is an optional add-on to Global Mapper®, providing advanced point cloud processing capabilities, including editing, filtering, classification, and feature extraction tools. The module also includes Pixels to Points® for photogrammetric point cloud creation using overlapping drone-captured images. At a significantly lower price than similar applications, the Lidar Module is a must-have for anyone working with any type of point cloud data.

 Highlights from the latest release of the Lidar Module include a new tool for improving the appearance of buildings extracted from a point cloud with perpendicular or parallel line segments, an expansion to the terrain painting tools including slope painting and freehand or trace-mode drawing, updates to Pixels to Points to allow restarting a canceled job and using scene clustering to handle extensive data sets, and much more.

 “This release provides some practical updates,” stated Patrick Cunningham, Blue Marble’s President and CEO. "Improvements to terrain painting, building regularization, and Pixels to Points editing tools should help our users process 3D data more efficiently."

 Blue Marble Application Specialists will be conducting a live webinar on Wednesday, March 10, to showcase the Global Mapper Lidar Module v22.1. During this hour-long presentation, scheduled to begin at 10:00 am (U.S. Eastern Time), attendees will see the latest tools and ask questions about the new functionality. Registration is required.
