CloudCompare forum

Is it possible to automate this process?
I have hundreds of objects I want to colorize (only for demonstration purposes).

For my bachelor thesis I created point-clouds of trees to measure the diameter. Since I'm working with tree point-clouds as well for my bachelor thesis, I want to suggest you another software: CompuTree. It is designed to measure the DBH (and lot more). Its not as sophisticated as CloudCompare, but...

Actually the cross section tool allows you to extract multiple sections, but in a grid-like manner (each section is repeated along one or more direction, with an optional gap between each). Therefore you can't use it for your need. Well,l thats what I was afraid of. But still it is a quite useful t...

Hello dear forum, I have an additional question to this topic, but first let me try to explain what I want to achieve. I have a very big point cloud of an forest. I want to extract a cross section for each tree. I have an file with the x, y and z coordinates for each tree. My approach would be to us...

This is the code I used for the command line tool open CMD and change directory to cloudcompare / shift right click on CloudCompare folder and open CMD there CloudCompare -o -GLOBAL_SHIFT -312600 -5693000 0 merged_Full.asc -CROP2D z 4 46 829 77 1037 169 1027 122 849 Some explanations of the code sin...

Either you set the right shift at loading time (in the Global Shift dialog that automatically appears). Or more simply you apply the remaining shift afterwards with 'Edit > Apply transformation'. Okay using the Apply transformation did the trick... But on the way home I was wondering if it would be...

It seems that I'm failing to get my point cloud to the origin of the coordinate system with CloudCompare. It seems there is a quite big shift after rotation of the cloud. So my guess is that my cloud is not set correctly to the origin. The first thing I do is to import the pount cloud and apply the ...

Dear Daniel, thank you for your quick reply, it seems I missed it, I'm sorry for the long delay. The data I have is georeferenced, and to my knwoledge there were used seven ground control points used during the 146 scans of the entire plot. So I guess my AOI is in a real world coordinate system. But...

Dear Forum, I recently started to work with point clouds from TLS - Data. I have a huge plot (over 1 hectar) of trees scanned. So it is a quite big dataset. To reduce the data I try to focus only to the area of interest (AOI). The data is geo-referenced and I do have the exact coordinates of my AOI....
