Importing a Base Map


Base Maps

Base maps aid in the placement of model objects (e.g., sources, buildings, and receptors) when specific coordinate information is not available.  They also help the modeler to better appreciate the spatial relationships between model objects and surrounding features.

Base Map Aids

BREEZE provides a number of tools and wizards to import base maps, including the ability to automatically download aerial photos for U.S. locations from the Internet and the creation of height maps and shaded relief terrain maps using the BREEZE terrain server.

Benefits

  • Helps to quality assure model object placement.
  • Automated base map importation for U.S. locations.
  • Base maps can be draped over terrain height maps.
  • Import raster, .dxf, and ESRI file formats.
