Advanced Texture Preparation for Sensor Applications
Part of any sensor simulation development workflow includes the preparation and creation of sensor textures for use by the scene generation software to accurately render the characteristics of the sensor scene. CTS Sensors provides the accurate generation of large area geo-specific IR and NVG capable Virtual Textures, as well as geo-typical sensor texture generation tools. CTS Sensors includes both an integrated Creator Terrain Studio module, as well as the TMM GUI based sensor texture generation tools.

CTS Sensors provides users with a proven, consistent methodology for automatically generating sensor textures, as well as the ability to assess the viability of the material classification prior to sensor texture generation. This enables even non-experts to achieve and validate results, which helps reduce errors and increase productivity. CTS Sensors is the most effective solution available for the preparation of geo-typical and geo-specific Virtual Textures for sensor applications.

CTS Sensors Features

CTS Integrated Module
	Leverages the Creator Terrain Studio terrain and imagery generation infrastructure. Provides work flows and tools designed for large area Virtual Texture applications.
TMM GUI Based Tools
	Provides tools designed for entity and small area geo-typical material classification.
