Problem when exporting in ply format

Post by flutes »

Hello,

I am experiencing a problem when exporting a point cloud in .ply format.
Indeed, I recently imported a large model (3km * 567m * 70m) in .las format, and once the model exported in .ply format, the rendering of the latter does not correspond to the original model (see screenshots ).
This problem has never happened before (usually I work on smaller models).

Original file (.las)

Ply file

Thanking you.

Problem set, it comes from the global shift which had values ​​too high !

Indeed, for LAS files we use/suggest the Global Shift already defined in the LAS file. But it's not always optimal...
