About Datum Workstation

A professional geospatial analysis software that integrates GIS, image processing, terrain modeling, and desktop cartography. It supports advanced data visualization, LIDAR processing, and automated scripting for complex geospatial workflows.

Datum Workstation (formerly TNTgis) is a comprehensive geospatial software suite developed by Datum Geospatial. It serves as a professional-grade Geographic Information System (GIS) that combines image processing, terrain analysis, and cartographic tools into a single package. The software is designed for a wide range of applications, including agricultural management, environmental monitoring, and disaster relief. A key strength of the platform is its pipeline architecture, which enables efficient processing of massive datasets, including terabytes of imagery. Users can automate complex workflows using the built-in scripting language, making it suitable for high-volume production environments. The software is cross-platform, running on both Windows and macOS. While it offers a robust set of features for advanced users, it also provides a free viewer, Datum GeoView, for distributing data. Support is a major focus for the vendor, with unlimited free technical support provided to all users. Pricing is structured as a subscription model, with annual and monthly options available, and academic pricing for educational institutions.
