Projects and layers can be published to your on-premises or hosted SkylineGlobe Server directly from TerraExplorer Pro. This tutorial guides you through this process using the TerraExplorer offline kit project referenced in this article. The project includes a TerraBuilder terrain database, PhotoMesh 3D model, PhotoMesh point cloud, TerraBuilder Imagery layer, and GIS feature layers. After publishing, you can review the layers published to the SkylineGlobe Server, reload the project into TerraExplorer Desktop—now streamed from the SkylineGlobe Server—and access it viaTerraExplorer Fusion.
