SX10 too Cyclone

Post by kyle.hod »

Hey everybody and thanks in advance.

What’s the best way to get data from the SX10 with colour, into cyclone.

Preprocessing in TBC seems to take a long time!

Is there a way to export each scan to E57 format? Cyclone will import E57 files with color data.

We've had colour SX10 data given to us in LAS format, exported from TBC. According to the documentation, TBC supports E57 as well, which would probably be a better option as it is broken down into setups internally which would make re-registration possible. E57 also incorporates images as well which LAS doesn't.

Yes, Shane has got right but it might possible to use another solution which is Leica Cyclone importer.

Below is a datasheet:

E57 is good because you have conversion file with the information: e.g. 'matrix of registration', colored scans, and some information.

Best,

Thanks for the comments guys, i've been pre-processing in TBC then exporting the e57, just checking I was doing it the best way and that there wasn't a quicker way, usually more than one way to skin a cat!!

When I export an e57 file out of TBC it just comes out as a single point cloud and doesn't retain the individual clouds. Has anyone had success with keeping the clouds individual when exporting an e57?
