    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?

    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!
