Getting structured PCD file
Posted: Mon Nov 02, 2020 10:30 am
I want to generate a planar image from the laser scanner data (Faro terrestrial laser scanner (TLS)) using Point cloud library (PCL). I can export structured TLS data using FARO SCENE as PTX or e57. I can't read these formats and I need to convert it into Pcd or ply file. I used Cloud Compare to export it as Pcd, but I get only an unstructured pcd file (unorganized point cloud dataset).
PTX file
825
342
PCD file
How can I get a structured Pcd file (Image-like organized structure)? I need to get this info again 825 *342.
WIDTH 825
HEIGHT 342
Any software? Can I get Ascii pcd also?
