LuciadCPillar overview
Focusing on needs within the defense domain, LuciadCPillar provides the foundation for advanced geospatial applications. Developers can create high-performance Command and Control and location intelligence applications thanks to the clean design and modular structure of the LuciadCPillar API.
As a configurable API, LuciadCPillar allows you to integrate visualization components, add support for custom data or databases, apply your own custom data styling and symbology, or match the user interface to mirror your company’s unique needs and style. You can also explore data in a 2D or 3D map view.
