Working with ROS .bag Files Containing Point Cloud Data

Good evening,

I trust all is well.

I would like to use CloudCompare to analyze point clouds generated from a Velodyne VLP-16 LiDAR.

The data is processed and saved in Robot Operting System (ROS) .bag file format.

How can I open these files in CloudCompare?

Best Regards,

Marc

Ah good question. The last time I tried to load .bag files (programmatically) I failed miserably... Especially compiling things on Windows was a huge pain. If someone was skilled enough to make a plugin for .bag files, that would be awesome...
