How do you define 'precision' here? Do you mean accuracy? And is one of the point cloud more accurate than the other maybe? (you could then compare the other one to this one, by computing distances between the 2 for instance). Or if you know some particular dimensions you can use either the Primitive fitting tools (sphere, cylinder, etc.) or Ground Control Points, etc.
