There are 3 options in this mode as shown in the screen grabs . Although this makes an ideal pointcloud for fly-throughs and visuals its obviously not ideal for detailed measurements.
I'm told it will 'fill in' mirrors and reflective surfaces that normally appear as holes but haven't tried that yet.
The scanner picked out the lamp-posts and heads easily as there was nothing but sky behind, the software added, interpolated the light and flare as it appeared in the image.
That's my understanding, however, I think it adds another dimension to the Cyclone view.

This sounds like a dangerous business to me, making up points from photos... But it might work for some aplications i suppose.

Looks great. The idea of low res scans for the dome and then using the scan window for items of interest is something I'm looking forward to testing with the IStar when we get it.
