Terrain design from the ground up

Gaea in Action!
"Gaea replaced every terrain creator in my toolbox. I used to spend hours massaging designs, but with Gaea I get there in minutes."

Workflow
Gaea's myriad workflow conveniences were painstakingly designed to maximize your productivity, and save you time and aggravation.
Choose from 3 individual workflows to best suit your needs or mood: Layers, Graph, or Sculpt. Each method provides the same high degree of quality, output, and tooling.
Artists on the same team can design in different workflows and still collaborate on the same terrain.
More about WORKFLOW
Create
Gaea provides a wide range of procedural and hand-sculpting tools to help you rapidly realize your vision. Instead of dealing with fractals and functions, you can work directly with primitives, such as mountains and valleys, to put together an entire world in moments.

Erode
Realistic erosion is the cornerstone of every great terrain. Our in-depth research gives you a huge advantage, both practical and dramatic. Gaea features the industry's most advanced and flexible erosion algorithm. You can create superb, believable natural environments or worlds from your imagination.

Color
Gaea exposes various aspects of a terrain through its unique Data Maps. These maps give you access to rain flow patterns, vegetation growth areas, precipitation velocity, soil distribution, and more.
Such data maps become the foundation of the color production process. By layering and combining data maps, you can create sophisticated textures that rival actual satellite imagery.
