Leiden3D

The VirtualGeo SDK developed by DIGINEXT, is a C++ Software Development Kit (SDK) that provides an object-oriented Application Programmers Interface (API) enabling software developers to build customised 2D and 3D geospatial applications.


With VirtualGeo SDK, you will earn a significant amount of labour and cost developing, avoid any risk that you would take developing your own 3D terrain engine. VirtualGeo SDK is robust, field-proven –more than ten years in critical applications- geospatial and 3D optimised engine. The toolkit provides a robust and cross-platform C++ toolkit based on robust libraries like OpenGL, GDAL, boost and Qt. The SDK includes modular libraries, example applications, and documentation.


The VirtualGeo SDK provides powerful geospatial visualization through its:

  • Global reference system;
  • Seamless render from global scale to interior;
  • Data interoperability and support for standards;
  • Fully interactive control of rendered objects and views;
  • Hardware scalability from modern GPU to low cost hardware platforms.

The VirtualGeo SDK reduces costs in producing geo-spatial applications by providing:

  • Proven technology 
  • A high-level object-oriented API 
  • High performance global rendering services 
  • Example applications
