The automatic downloading from API calls to geospatial hosting. This feature is time efficient as you will spend less time calling map with no external application steps.

Benefits include:

  • Reduces OPEX

  • Only purchase map area required (No
    overhead from forced tiles/regional map)

  • Cost efficient

  • Short term leasing

  • Project per project Basis

  • Up-to-date Maps with automatic updates
    (No longer trapped in old data)

Please note:

  • When data is downloading you can still use the software (data will download in the background.)

    • * however you cannot run studies

  • Sites will adjust with elevation when terrain data is loaded

  • The data is currently available for

    • EGS world data is 30m terrain and clutter (studies aross borders may be an issue, please contact support if you are trying to run a study across a country border.)

Attenuation file for Global data:

Ensure you have a study grid set. Then navigate to databases> data boundary and check the box that says “Use geographic boundary to control which terrain/clutter files are used.” Then click the button set to study grid bounds.
