Generating a database in LFM from an .imp file.
I needed to use Cyclone for registration and do true views. I now have to generate a database in LFM. Is there any way of me doing this without effectively starting again in LFM to register. This would be tricky as this particular job has me using cloud to cloud registration and i am not quite up to speed with what LFM can do in that aspect....

Having registered the laser scans in Cyclone either write the registration back to the scans or export them as PTX, PTZ... These can then be used to generate an LFM database.
You would have to ask a cyclone user how to write the registration back to the scans as I do registration.

Have done this a few times and PTX is the way to go. The PTX file keeps the registration info with it.
If you don't see that there is nothing, then you are kidding yourself.
