Get the time stamp of a point in a point cloud?

Post by adrianom »

I want to find the time stamp of a single point in a point cloud. Essentially, I am trying to clip and remove self-overlap generated from an aircraft and my workflow was to get the starting time stamp of where the self-overlap starts and where it ends. Is it possible to get the time stamp of a point or is there potentially better method of clipping a point cloud? Thanks!

You can make the 'timestamp' SF active on the cloud, and then spawn a label (SHIFT + LEFT CLICK on a point, or use the Point Picking tool) to read the current SF value for a given point.

Pay attention that SF values are split into two parts when loaded from LAS files (so as to avoid losing accuracy when loading them in 32bits fields).
