Viewing DataHub Outputs

DataHub can display different outputs such as Point Clouds, Orthophotos, and Terrain Data.  In this article you will learn more about how to display and configure them according to preference.

Orthomosaic + Terrain view

This is the default view in DataHub.  The generated orthophoto wrapped onto the generated surface model of the site is displayed to view the project in a 3D Perspective.

More options are available in the 3D Mesh dropdown under the Imagery tab from the left sidebar:

Orthophoto (2D View)

A 2D view of the site can also be displayed by clicking on the three-dot button on the right side of the screen and selecting the "Switch to 2D" option.  This will let you view the orthophoto without the digital surface model.
