MXR-DS-xterrain 07/20 xTerrain includes several openly available high- and low-resolution terrain datasets, as well as custom data tailored to the deployed environment. Additional customer datasets can be added to xTerrain on request. The system also includes several raster data derivative layers including slope, aspect and terrain based on mobility models described in academic papers. Users will be able to download these mobility models to local Desktop GIS soware (e.g., ArcGIS Desktop and QGIS) and augment them with additional information (land-cover data, transportation networks, weather, etc.) to modify the mobility values and perform routing analysis. To streamline this process, these analytics will be available directly in xTerrain in a future release. In addition to the pre-computed layers, xTerrain has interactive analytics that allow users to navigate to an area on the map and perform various terrain and raster analytics, such Viewshed, Aspect, Slope, Raster Data Clip, Helicopter Landing Zones, Topographic Position Index, Least Cost Path, and advanced routing and mobility models. For these types of analytics, xTerrain brings speed—allowing users to repeat the process quickly, while making corrections in the parameters to customize and refine the result. Rapid mobility analytics info@maxar.com maxar.com Data available in xTerrain Impacts to mission ■ Allows users to spend more time on analysis and rapidly iterate on analytics. ■ Simplifies technological logistics for analysis derived from topographical data ■ Decreases processing time allowing for easy comparison between analyses completed with different parameters ■ Gives analysts the ability to review outputs from various raster datasets and view in context with other data streams
