LSS DTM Software

LSS is a complete land survey, terrain modelling, volume, design and visualisation package which is relied upon by many blue chip organisations and is well respected amongst engineering and survey professionals as the system of choice for modelling and design. LSS SOLO A powerful terrain modelling and survey processing application, LSS Solo is packed with functions you might expect from a much more expensive system. LSS Solo is of particular value to the mobile surveyor wishing to download and process surveys when away from the office. As a front-end system to a full version of LSS or CAD package, Solo includes full DTM functionality (triangulation and contouring), graphical survey editing, traverse adjustment, CAD-Pro (Coordinate Geometry) and text handling. In addition, LSS Solo includes DXF, MX GENIO and LandXML export options. More than just a data processing system, Solo is a complete field solution for surveyors and engineers. Please note that LSS Solo does not calculate volumes.
For this you’d need LSS Vista or LSS Elite. Why not start with Solo and upgrade to a higher level of LSS for just the difference in annual fee. LSS VISTA The ideal solution for most users processing and preparing surveys and designs. It contains everything in LSS Solo, but adds volume calculations, plan and section plotting, import of DXF files, export to Machine Control and enhanced CAD-Pro commands. LSS Vista is very often the entry-level product for Engineers and Surveyors who require more than a survey processing and terrain modelling system. The list of major functions is below, but if you're still unsure whether it's right for you then please call us. Each dongle allows one user access to the software at a time. The software can be installed on as many computers as you require. Simply move the dongle around, or 'share' it across your network. If more than one person needs access at the same time, then why not purchase additional dongles, or save money and order a multiple-user dongle.   Everything in LSS Solo, plus Printing of plans and sections Enhanced application of text and surface features Input of data from other systems, such as DXF for AutoCAD™ Interrogate and import from MX (MOSS) Model files (in addition to GENIO in Solo) Export ESRI ASCII Grid format (in addition to import of this format in Solo) Export to selected GPS Machine Control Systems Cut and paste DTM models Enhanced CAD-Pro capabilities Design of parallel offset features Query maximum, minimum and total lengths of selected linear features Conversion of Ordnance Survey MasterMap (GML) Volumes, sections, 3D views and machine control... 3D views and realtime fly-bys (virtual tours). Textures may be applied to the DTM in order to represent different materials or zones and images applied to point and link features to represent such things as trees, hedges, walls, fences and buildings Raster maps and aerial orthophotos may also be draped onto the DTM with the minimum of user intervention and the combined model flown or walked through in real time with joystick, gamepad or keyboard control of 3D virtual tours Display up to 36 DTMs in the same 3D view simultaneously, with full control over transparency Animated water 'flood' level facility within the 3D view and virtual tour Calculation of volumes between two surveys, broken down by surface feature if required, using cross sections or highly accurate complex triangular vertical prisms Volumes can take into account formation level information such as concrete slab thickness or road construction depths Calculation of areas and volumes to a datum, as defined by surface features if required Plotting of sections through up to 50 DTMs simultaneously to any Windows-compatible printer or plotter or DXF file Reporting and export of section data Digitising of plans via a tablet, including the ability to 'stream' and condition contour data Design of variable offset features Determination of Ponding Extents for the analysis of ponded water LSS ELITE LSS Elite is the top of the range system boasting advanced terrain feature design, extremely comprehensive volume calculations and some specialist commands used in quarrying, railway surveys, construction and visual impact analysis. It's not surprising that most LSS users have chosen Elite as their preferred solution. It is packed with functions, some of which are unique in this sector and while some commands such as earthworks design can be used in mining, quarring, civil engineering and restoration, others are specific to particular markets. For many LSS users, this is their "Go To" application for a huge range of tasks. And for those who handle large LiDAR, Laser Scan, Drone and bathymmetry data, our Point Cloud upgrade will provide them with a formidable and unique capability. Everything in LSS Vista, plus: Our most comprehensive design, reporting and modelling system:  Advanced terrain design employing wizards and user defined shapes or 'templates' eg for slopes, embankments, opencast mines, quarries etc Extremely comprehensive volume calculation facilities, including breakdown by surface type, zones, cut depths etc Volumes above and below a third model, datum or tilted plane Output of cut/fill intersection lines and 'depth' lines Generation of isopachytes (level difference contours) Calculation of Overburden Ratio Addition/subtraction of levels in one DTM to/from another including multiplication (for pre- and post-settlement calculations, merging data where only higher or lower than existing, bulking factors etc)
