Quick Terrain Modeler

Quick Terrain Modeler is the world’s premier 3D point cloud and terrain visualization software package. Designed for use with LiDAR, but flexible enough to accommodate other 3D data sources, Quick Terrain Modeler provides powerful, simple and intuitive terrain exploitation.

Quick Terrain Reader

The Quick Terrain Reader is the free companion software to Quick Terrain Modeler. The Quick Terrain Reader is capable of opening pre-built digital elevation models (DEMs) and point clouds and allows users to freely move through the terrain quickly and intuitively.

Interactive Online Quick Terrain Modeler Demonstration

To make the most of your trial period, we strongly suggest an interactive, live, online demonstration of the Quick Terrain Modeler. While the Quick Terrain Modeler is easy to use, a few basic tips from us could help you get started very quickly. In addition, if you would like us to work with your own data during the demonstration, we can accommodate you by providing our FTP site information. Once you upload your data to our site, we will be able to work with it during our demonstration.


A live demonstration consists of Applied Imagery controlling the Quick Terrain Modeler from our office, the audience viewing the demonstration on their computer (or multiple computers), and a conversation via telephone. We can adapt to the specific features you would like to see, whether it is building models, analysis tools, overlaying imagery, or any other topic of interest. The online demonstration is free and usually takes 60 to 90 minutes. To schedule a demonstration, please send an e-mail to info@appliedimagery.com.
