Point cloud low performance

nikoue

I am an Autocad user who likes a lot of Microstation features. Today I tried in a new very powerful computer MicroStation connect edition 12 with Descartes. I loaded a 787 million point cloud ( 54 faro scans with medium quality), and the navigation…

RE: How to best fit a Solid shape to a point cloud?

Maria Garcia

Hi David, There are some tools like fit Cylinder, fit Plane, ... that you can use for this in Descartes but the best forum to post this kind of questions is Reality modeling Forum. Review these wikis http://communities.bentley.com/products/3d_imaging_and_point_cloud_software…

RE: Point Clouds for a newbie

Kurt Rasmussen

You can use Descartes "Smart Snap" to select the highest point along the top of rail to trace the rails or the 3D line follow tool if you have intensities to your point cloud. This will give you a rough horizontal alignment. fyi- InRoads ss3 has a …

What is the best way to model concrete walls with point clouds?

samh_jjh

I must model concrete walls using scan data. The tolerances on a project are very tight and the dimensions need to be within a 16th of an inch accuracy if at all possible. What is the best way to model walls using point cloud data? Thank You!
