Blue Marble Geographics® <https://www.bluemarblegeo.com/> has released new
versions of its GIS and point cloud editing software development kits (SDK) —
the Global Mapper® SDK
<https://www.bluemarblegeo.com/products/global-mapper-sdk.php> and LiDAR
Module® SDK
<https://www.bluemarblegeo.com/products/global-mapper-sdk-lidar.php>. The
version 21 SDKs incorporate enhancements from the recent releases of the
desktop versions of the software, including the addition of the LiDAR
Module's photogrammetric tool — Pixels-to-Points® — for generating point
clouds from drone and UAV images.


For more than 20 years, Global Mapper has been renowned for its ease of
use, powerful analysis capability, and support for more than 300 file
formats. The Global Mapper and LiDAR Module SDKs enable developers to add
the functionality of Global Mapper and the LiDAR Module to their own
applications and to create custom toolbars and extensions for the desktop
version of Global Mapper. New capabilities added in the version 21 release
of the Global Mapper SDK and LiDAR Module SDK include the following:

   -

   Speed enhancements in the display of tiled online image sources
   -

   Significant speed improvements in the drawing of ECW files
   -

   Faster exports to tiled palette-based formats
   -

   High bit depth raster exports now support resampling
   -

   Faster multi-threaded processing when verbose error log levels, such as

   -

   Improved display of online tiled sources where only part of the zoom
   level is filled with data


New Features in the LiDAR Module SDK

   -

   Automatic identification and reclassification of utility poles from a
   point cloud layer
   -

   Many updates to the Pixels-to-Points tool (via GENERATE_POINT_CLOUD

   and color harmonization
   -

   Speed improvements when gridding LiDAR data with large gaps
