Anthony Masinton Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 I'm trying to capture a 3D version of a piece of sculpture by surveying the sculpture with a theodolite and creating a cloud of 3D loci - a cloud of 3D points (hundreds of them). Is there any way of converting this point cloud into a 3D surface? Thanks! Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Biplab Posted February 26, 2004 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted February 26, 2004 At this point there is no point cloud functionality in the program. Quote Link to comment
propstuff Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 Anthony, this may sound like a pain, but if you ensured that you took the points at definite "contour levels", the contour lines could perhaps be turned into NURBS curves and Lofted. (?) cheers, N. Quote Link to comment
