Cleaning point clouds // define field of view; line of view
« on: March 15, 2017, 12:20:13 PM »
Dear PS-user,

how do you deal with complex point clouds of i.e. buildings with facades and roof?
From top view the buidling is shaped like a "U" and on top the roof as well.

To get a nice mesh it is necessary to clean the point cloud, especially at all the windows and other reflections.

But besides Agisoft PS being a little weak in handling big point cloud data smoothly there is also the problem that you always have points of other parts of the building in view.

To delete and clean the points of the facade for example it would be great to define a "line of view". So you could "blank out" the rooftop for example and edit the facades points. By setting this "line of view" you could easily go through the whole project and clean up your point cloud.

Later again you simply go back to your standard view and all points are visible again and ready for meshing.

What do you think about it? Any solutions that are available right now?

Greetings

Alex
