Data Types

Jakartowns provides access to two main types of data:

3D Cartographic Data

  1. Point Clouds

3D cartographic data contains the maximum level of detail and accuracy provided by the sensors used during acquisition. These 3D data are compatible with software supporting 3D mode, such as certain GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and CAD (Computer-Aided Design) software. Jakarto's 3D cartographic data are characterized as having "absolute inventory potential," meaning multiple uses can be derived from the same data.

  1. Panoramic Images

Panoramic images provide a realistic 360-degree view of the captured environment, offering an immediate visual representation of the context of objects of interest, buildings, streets, and landscapes.

2D Cartographic Data

2D cartographic data, also known as tiled layers, provide exceptional imagery of point clouds, equivalent to a very high-resolution orthoimage. They represent a 2D plan view generated from 3D point clouds. These 2D data are easily accessible via Jakartowns.

Behind the scenes, Jakartowns relies on Jakarto's specialized web service called Tiles to display this data. This 2D representation of LiDAR data integrates seamlessly into a Geographic Information System (GIS). For more information, we encourage you to explore the detailed documentation of the Tiles service.
