Description
Generates a DTM or solid wireframe from a point cloud data file in memory.
Input data will typically be scan data from aerial or underground equipment (e.g. CMS or drones) and should already be in memory as an object before you use the command. Import options are available using your Data Source Drivers, one of which is dedicated to point data import - PDAL.
Scan data can include a high number of sample points. Subsampling is recommended to improve performance of surfacing and downstream processes (modelling, reserves reporting etc.). How much or how little of your raw data is imported will be determined by what you wish to achieve, the nature of the object(s) being reconstructed, hardware limitations and other contributing factors. If you decide to subsample, you will need to set the target points number that you wish to achieve (the raw number is also displayed).
Subsampling can be performed either by using a regular grid, or a declustering approach to remove more data from dense clusters of data.
A (potentially subsampled) separate point cloud object is then derived from the original input data.

If duplicate points are detected in the input points file, only one of the points will be added to the point cloud object. |
This command displays the Wireframe Reconstruction from Points dialog. More...
How to Use
- Specify the input object
- (Optionally) subsample/decluster the incoming points to create a dataset for surfacing.
- Specify surfacing parameters to control continuity, hole removal, output resolution and other qualities.
- Create the wireframe.
