Something we've avoided adding in the past as an automated output from point cloud sections on advice from a few senior rail surveyors. sc0 files are typically generated from the likes of trolleys or other rail mounted devices and used for precise clearance purposes. So far as I know, Amberg Rail produces them as output from the GRP trolley system. While I've seen it done, you'd need to be very careful with your control and checks doing this from terrestrial scanning.

Thanks for your reply

Yes, a reliable source of data is the key thing for clearance purposes but in this case I was looking to give a try to some software that can produce the .sc0 from point cloud and total station data if you know any?

Thanks
