Adjusting elevation of scan data in cylcone

Post by Callum Mincher »

Hi All,

Could someone give me some advice on globally adjusting the level of a scan in cyclone?

We need to drop the scan data and was wondering what the best way to do this was?

As Usual in Cyclone a few ways to do this depending on your down stream desires.

One is to use the set coordinates by points. insert a vertex and make a note of its coordinates. select the vertex and set coordiantes to that point with the same x and y but with new z. this is a good and simple method for a single Modelspace. you can set that new system to be the default or keep both allowing you to pick and choose.

The other way is to re register it (even if you have unified it) find 2 targets. and make a text file of there coordinates while adjusting there z value. bring in your registered data and the new control. and it will move. remebering if you have unified to highlight the unified MS in the MS tab to bring through that object to the new registered scanworld
