Leica Geosystems announces latest version of public safety software

With an entirely new user experience (UX) and interface, Map360 v4.0 simplifies incident reconstruction activities for investigators, reconstructionists and other public safety personnel. With 2D intuitive workflows, Map360 Sketch offers a program designed to create basic diagrams, floorplans and reports from manual measurements, imported points or UAV imagery. At an intermediate level, Map360 Standard works with TPS and GNSS technology introducing 3D capabilities and tools as well as animation. Map360 Pro is directed at those using workflows that result in the creation of a 3D point cloud, such as laser scanners and UAV photogrammetry, offering advanced 3D capabilities and point cloud support.

“This has to be the best release, yet. The majority of our scenes will use the body poser feature to show an accurate reconstruction of the scene,” said Special Agent Scott Kraft of the North Dakota Bureau of Criminal Investigation, a beta test user who provided the product team a full review of the software. “Map360 was a quality product prior to this, but the newest version definitely adds a lot of appeal to the software in terms of ease of use.”
