Carmenta Engine
A geospatial SDK for embedding real-time mapping and analysis into mission-critical applications. Built on an optimised C++ core, it supports over 100 data formats without conversion, renders hardware-accelerated 3D maps, and handles live data streams such as radar plots, drone video feeds and military tactical overlays. Developers can use native C++, .NET, Java or Python APIs on Windows, Linux and Android.
Carmenta Server
A web map server for centralised distribution of geospatial data and analysis. Powered by Carmenta Engine technology, it reads and renders over 100 data formats and serves them to client applications via standardised OGC web services. Available as a traditional Windows Server deployment or as a containerised Server Core version for microservice and cloud architectures.
Carmenta UAS Mission Kit
A development toolkit for building advanced unmanned aerial system applications. It provides sample application source code, expert training and support to accelerate deployment of custom drone mission software. Functional areas include tactical drone routing, georeferenced live video, terrain and visibility analysis, radio coverage modelling, automated landing zone identification and military tactical overlays.
Carmenta UAS Services
An operational service offering that supports unmanned systems missions with geospatial analysis and routing capabilities. It enables software developers to integrate advanced flight routing and geospatial analysis into autonomous systems without building the underlying geospatial infrastructure from scratch.
Carmenta Map Builder
A map creation and configuration tool that lets developers and operators build custom geospatial visualisations. Used alongside Carmenta Engine and Carmenta Server to define map configurations, data sources and rendering styles for defence, maritime and public safety applications.
