WorldComposer is a tool to extract heightmap data and satellite images from the real world. It can run as a standalone or as an extension for TerrainComposer.
Compatible with Unity 5.1 and higher, 2017.x and 2018.x
Its powerful features let you create high resolution AAA quality real world terrain with a few clicks.
For a quick overview of the main features I recommend to watch the WorldComposer trailer.

I invented a shadow removal algorithm that can make the satellite images shadow free. Shadows in imagery are problematic and removing them makes a huge difference in terrain rendering quality. Instead of having a fixed sun position to fit with the satellite images shadows, you can have day and night cycles.
