Geoprocessing directly from the ERDAS TITAN Viewer

Amy Zeller

This article is part of a series of articles:
  • ERDAS Geoprocessing
  • Illumination Equalization
  • ERDAS Geoprocessing: Process Discovery & Execution
  • Illumination Equalization (Part 2)
  • Unified ERDAS APOLLO Administration
  • Geoprocessing directly from the ERDAS TITAN Viewer
  • Users may now connect to ERDAS APOLLO Catalogs via the ERDASTITAN Viewer to execute geoprocesses and visualize results in a 3D virtualglobe.



    This Fall ERDAS will provide geoprocessing as an end-to-endworkflow consisting of three main elements:

    • ERDAS IMAGINE provides a rich set ofgeospatial processes (called spatial models)
    • Enterprise customers use ERDAS IMAGINE to publish custom models to ERDASAPOLLO using a WPS compliant interface
    • Users may execute WPS from 2D web clients like the ERDAS APOLLO Web Client (2D), and the ERDASTITAN Viewer 3D virtual globe
    This video demonstrates using the TITAN Viewer to discover processes,add inputs, execute the process and visualize outputs in a 3D globe.


    The user’s experience executing a geoprocess in the TITANViewer (3D) closely mirrors the experience in the APOLLO Web Client (2D).


    Geoprocess View
    Displays all geoprocesses you have rights to execute (peryour credentials)

    Process Description
    Provides a detailed description of the model the userselected to execute

    Process Input
    Displays all process arguments, provides default values forarguments and highlights arguments that are required and not satisfied yet toexecute the model

    Results Pane Varies depending on activity

    • InputData - Displays suitable inputs for the geoprocess.
    • OutputResults - If you have executed the geoprocess, the results pane shows the processoutputs.

    My Processes

    Lists processes that you have previously run. Displays job metadata, including when theprocess was run, what process and progress. Re-displays all arguments used inthe process run, and also process outputs with metadata, thumbnail

    “View In” Buttons For viewing outputs in TITAN or a third-party viewer

    • Viewin TITAN
    • Viewin Google Earth
    • Viewin Bing Maps
