This functionality is currently in BETA and only available with a Strategic Partnership.

What is Basic Mode?

The Basic Mode can be useful for very large areas where very high detail in the calculations is less relevant.

• Basic Mode is selected during project creation, and enables very large projects with a medium (5m grid) map.
• The maximum size of the basic mode is pending on your license agreement and hardware. If you can normally create 30x30 km projects, you can create a 180x180km project in Basic Mode.
• The size (km2) of a Basic Mode project counts for 1/25 in your license.
• Calculation grid size is set to 5x5m minimum, but larger grid sizes (10x10m, 20x20m, etc) can be selected.
• The Digital Elevation Model (DTM) is set to 10x10m in Basic Mode.
• To limit the high amount of polygons present in a Basic Mode project, BGT data and 3D models (buildings) will not be available.
