TER to IGES
Please find below the list of our other useful resources related to TER and IGES interoperability and exchange that could help you with the TER to IGES conversion.
TER Terragen File
TER (Terragen Terrain File) is a proprietary file format native to Terragen, a natural terrain scenery authoring software. It allows for an easy triangular or quad mesh description with the additional metadata for the terrain recognition industry. Autoconverter and Automesher Application, our TER file converters can read and import TER terrain data thanks to the open asset import library. The imported terrain data can be easily converted into your native 3D file format thanks to the elevated 3D file export possibilities of our Autoconverter software.
IGES File
IGES (Initial Graphics Exchange Specification) is the initial file format for the data exchange between different systems e.g. CAD, CAM or CAE. As the geometry data are stored in a text file format, you will get bigger file sizes when exporting triangular meshes with thousands of faces using Autoconverter software. The IGES file format supports color per assembly, but without the alpha component, therefore any transparency setting will be lost in the IGES file.
