System Requirements

Operating system

·        Microsoft^® Windows^® 8.1 (64-bit);

·        Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit);

·        Microsoft Windows 11.

·        Note: when working with large datasets, point clouds, and 3D modeling, it is recommended to use 64-bit operating systems.

Databases

To work with databases for point clouds it is necessary to install PostGis extension for PostgreSql. If this extension is not present on the user’s computer, a window will appear during the installation process:

PostgreSQL 10 + Postgis 3.2.3-2

PostgreSQL 12 + Postgis 3.3.2-1

PostgreSQL 14 + Postgis 3.3.2-2

PostgreSQL 15 + Postgis 3.3.2-2.

Processor

Minimum requirements: 2 GHz.

Recommended: 3 GHz and higher.

RAM

Minimum requirements: 4 Gb. When working with point clouds 16 Gb.

Recommended requirements: 16 Gb and higher. When working with point clouds 32 Gb and higher.

Monitor

Standard monitors: 1920 × 1080.

High resolution monitors: up to 3840 × 2160 (supported in Windows 10, 11).

Graphics

Minimum requirements: graphics processor with 1 GB video memory.

Recommended requirements: graphics processor with 4 GB video memory (supports OpenGL 2.1 or DirectX 11).

Hard disk free space

7,0 Gb and hiher (to install the software).

To work with large point clouds, it is necessary to take into account their volume and quantity when choosing a hard disk. Estimation of the amount of point cloud data can be carried out according to the following table:

It is recommended to store point clouds on SSD disks to speed up the work.

Network

TCP/IP protocol should be run on the license server and all work stations where the applications using network licensing will work.
