Pointools Edit
Pointools Edit is the point cloud processing software for selecting, editing, & segmenting the largest point cloud models for reuse in downstream applications.
Product Overview
Pointools EditTM is the point cloud processing software for selecting, editing, & segmenting the largest point cloud models for reuse in downstream applications.
As a flagship product, Pointools is the essential software companion for any Pointools’ enabled application. Use Pointools Edit to very quickly select and recolour individual points, segment whole point cloud models, improve point cloud quality, and optimise point cloud performance for reuse inside compatible Bentley, Autodesk, Rhino, and SketchUp applications.
3D Model Aggregation
• View point clouds, 3D models, & 2D drawings together
Large Point Cloud Support
• Handles large datasets with billions of points
• Manage scene parameters interactively
• Load and unload POD models fast
High Performance Graphics
• Multi-threaded for high-performance display
• Uses high-density, low decimation Vortex display engine
• Stream point cloud model display in real time
• Control point cloud density with interactive slider
Data Interoperability
• Store points in POD models for broad reuse
• Create POD models from large range of scanners incl: Faro, TopCon, Leica, Optech, Riegl, Trimble, Z+F
• Supported scan data formats include: Ascii XYZ/TXT, FLS/FWS, LAS, PTX/PTS/PTZ/PTG, IXF, 3DD/RSP/RXP/RDP, CL3, Terrascan BIN, Kubit PTC
Application Interoperability
• Integration with 2007 - 2012 Autodesk apps incl: AutoCAD, Civil 3D, Architecture, Map 3D, Land Desktop
• Integration with broad portfolio of Bentley apps incl: MicroStation, OpenPlant, InRoads, RailTrack, GEOPAK, Bentley Map, Navigator
• Integration with Rhino + Google SketchUp
• Create multiple sections through point cloud models
• Edit section cut plane and depth dynamically
• Align drawing plane with section cut plane
• Move section cut plane along a curve
• Filter point cloud model view by region
Model Shaders
• Shade points by intensity and RGB colour
• Shade points by defining distances from plane
• Blend all shading settings for maximum impact
• Coordinate point cloud model with real-world location
• Sketch on top of view with pen for presentations
• Measurements via point to point or single point
• Annotate project with notes attached to objects
• Produce high-resolution ortho & perspective images
• Define rulers and grid lines
• Easy to use timeline-based animation system
• Render depth and alpha bu ers for compositing
• Anti-aliased rendering & motion-blur for superior quality
• Import/export camera paths to/from 3D design apps
• Fast point cloud selection tools including 3D brush
• Select and hide points by regions or colour
Point Painting
• Interactively recolour points
• Change colour by hue/saturation or brightness/contrast
Point Segmentation
• Layer + grid segmentation + density control
• Export layers or point selection to create new POD model
