TLS positioning

[fabrizio.agnello]

Hi, I use Cyclone for registering and then I usually orient point clouds using two points which fix the rotation angle along the z axis that aligns the points to the x axis. Up to the release 2.6.0 I had no problems in PTX import and normal computation. Now it happens that the TLS position does not match the position of 'rotated' point clouds, whereas with registered and unrotated point clouds there is no problem.

Is the problem already at loading time, or when you transform the clouds afterwards, in CloudCompare?

The problem is when I load point clouds in cloud compare. If I simply register the point clouds in Cyclone, the Sensor pose is correctly loaded in CC. But if I rotate the cloud in Cyclone using two reference points, the Sensor pose appear incorrect in CC.

Can you maybe send me two sample clouds (one with the original positions, and one after registration?).

You can use the email: 'cloudcompare [at] danielgm.net'.
