*Basic Mode is selected during project creation, and enables very large projects with a medium (5m grid) map.  
The Basic Mode can be useful for very large areas such as for regional analyses spanning multiple population centers or an entire province.
*The maximum size of the basic mode depends on your license agreement and hardware. If you can normally create 30x30 km projects, you can create a 180x180km project in Basic Mode.

*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 custom 3D models (such as 3DBAG and CityGML/i3s) will not be available when creating a new project.

*All buildings starting from 10m2 are included in Basic Mode
* A Basic Mode [[Project]] will still be counted as license usage, but only for 1/25 the usual size. A Basic Mode [[Project]] of 50km² will count for 2km².
*The maximum size of a Basic Mode depends on both the [[License]] and the [[requirements|hardware]] used. If you can normally create 30x30 km projects, you can create a 180x180km project in Basic Mode.
 
==Optimizations==
To facilitate working with very large areas, the Basic Mode encompasses a number of optimizations spanning various aspects of both [[Project]]s and the software:
* The minimum calculation grid size is set to 5x5m, although larger [[Grid Cell]]s are still possible.
* The [[elevation model]] is automatically set to a resolution of 10m.
* Certain datasets (such as [[BGT]] data) and custom 3D models (such as [[3D BAG]] and [[I3S]]) while not be available during [[Project generation]].
* [[Building]]s smaller than 10m² are automatically culled from the [[Project]] data whenever the [[Project]] is saved.

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

The Basic Mode is a specialized setting which allows for calculations on larger scales than the default calculation mode. Its central significant difference compared to the default calculation mode is the options for Grid Overlay calculations and the focus on larger-scale data.

The Basic Mode can be useful for very large areas such as for regional analyses spanning multiple population centers or an entire province.

Requirements

The requirements for a Basic Mode Project differ from a normal project.

  • The domain in which the Project is created must have a Strategic Partnership.
  • A Project must be created as a Basic Mode Project. It is not possible to change whether a Project is or isn't a Basic Mode Project later on.
  • A Basic Mode Project will still be counted as license usage, but only for 1/25 the usual size. A Basic Mode Project of 50km² will count for 2km².
  • The maximum size of a Basic Mode depends on both the License and the hardware used. If you can normally create 30x30 km projects, you can create a 180x180km project in Basic Mode.

Optimizations

To facilitate working with very large areas, the Basic Mode encompasses a number of optimizations spanning various aspects of both Projects and the software:

  • The minimum calculation grid size is set to 5x5m, although larger Grid Cells are still possible.
  • The elevation model is automatically set to a resolution of 10m.
  • Certain datasets (such as BGT data) and custom 3D models (such as 3D BAG and I3S) while not be available during Project generation.
  • Buildings smaller than 10m² are automatically culled from the Project data whenever the Project is saved.
