Quick Terrain Modeler (QTM) is commercial off-the-shelf Windows software from Applied Imagery for visualising, editing and analysing 3D point clouds and terrain models. It was designed for LiDAR but accepts 3D data from photogrammetry, radar, sonar and full-motion video collected from terrestrial, airborne or space-based platforms. It serves defence, intelligence, government and emergency-management users who need to load very large 3D data sets, analyse them quickly and produce briefing products with little training.
Users load point clouds, surface models and OBJ meshes into one scene in mixed coordinate systems and vertical datums, then drape 2D imagery from files or a Web Map Service (WMS). Satellite input is optional. The WMS tool pulls imagery and maps from public and private servers; access to Maxar's G-EGD imagery service is offered as a resource for DoD users. The QT Data Explorer searches STAC API repositories such as Microsoft Planetary Computer, where Landsat imagery is among the data that can be found, downloaded and loaded. The Data Explorer also reaches point-cloud repositories such as USGS 3DEP.
Tools include automatic point-cloud classification, building-footprint extraction, DSM and bare-earth DTM creation, slope, line-of-sight (USA version only), helicopter landing zone, flood, volume and change-detection analysis, route planning and timing, and export to GIS, CAD, Google Earth, PowerPoint and ATAK.
Applied Imagery was founded in 2004 to commercialise software developed at the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, and states that QTM is in use in all branches of the military and the intelligence community. It is sold in USA and International versions under node-locked, portable (USB key) or floating licences, with a free trial and the free Quick Terrain Reader viewer.
