Leica Cyclone 3DR Building Inspection Demonstration with Paul Burrows & Klaus Rieke

[@14rhatch]

Thank you Paul. This is exactly what I needed.

[@RealityCaptureGuy]

Excellent to hear!

IFC model when imported into 3DR doensnt seem to align with point cloud. Checked the IFC model and the associated point cloud in navisworks, perfectly aligned. What could have gone wrong?

[@KlausR3D]

Magnus could it be that you had an UCS active? That could easily cause it. Otherwise there shouldn't be an issue 😉

@@Malone178 strange. Was it off in all directions or for example only in height?

[@Malone178]

All directions

[@teewetekaata3510]

can you use other point cloud formats instead of lgs such as PTS, LAS, E57 to overlay the two models ?

[@RealityCaptureGuy]

Yes, Cyclone 3DR is very open in that regard... we have a HUGE list if import types you can import and then run analysis upon.

@@RealityCaptureGuy Inspection workflow (i.e. mapping tool) will work just the same as other point cloud files? noting that LGS has more information it carries?

[@Malone178]

Can you advise the accuracy of the deviation between pointcloud and Mesh model from this workflow?

[@RealityCaptureGuy]

It's a BIM model (IFC for example), not a mesh in this instance - the accuracy depends on the sensor used and how well you have aligned the model and the point-cloud (but mostly in these workflows, the model and the data are aligned prior to the point of import due to shared coordinate systems).
