Trimble RealWorks viewer - Can only see scan positions

Post by Megareece24 »

Hi all,

I am a total RealWorks newbie and am trying to view some pointcloud data captured with a TX7.

I have exported the registered pointcloud from trimble perspective as .tdx and have imported it into RealWorks viewer. But as you can see from the image, I can only see the scan positions and not the actual point cloud.

In the workspace, I have one folder which contains each TZF scan. I am sure the answer is very simple, but I have tried looking at the software tools and online videos but cannot seem to find the solution?

Any tips would be greatly appreciated! :D

Select all files and click "Create Sampled Scans"

You need to generate point clouds first.

I can't find the "create sampled scans" option.

Is this something that is only included in the full version?

You need Realworks license to create.
You can view scans with Scan explorer
"Big yellow button on the ribbon"
