Export 1 pointcloud for each scanstation

Post by soranan »

Hi everyone

The current workflow for exporting 1 pointcloud for each scan station (nonunified), is to select the scan world and export only the selected entity. This requires many exports, when you have many stations. Is there a more automatic way to work with this?

You could try the ptx splitter on this post. Chops a big ptx into the smaller single scans. Export all your clouds at once then let the tool chop them up.

Export all as PTG .. you get a PTG file per scan .. no doubt you will want to convert to something else.

James is right, but because ptg is binary not many other programs will read it...even if it is smaller.

Thank you everyone. I am familiar with the PTX-splitter but was hoping that it could be done in Cyclone, so I don’t have to have another procedure.
I am being told that there is a script made by someone, which does the job in Cyclone. Does anyone know where to find this script?
