Error: Failed to create the toolbox file
Note: While the Arctoolbox tools are still an option within the product, the introduction of LAS File Analyst in v2018.1 and the ReProject/Shift LAS PCT in v2017.1, the new tools provide more efficient and robust tools and are now the recommended tools to use. Symptom: While installing the LP360 toolbox tools in the ArcToolbox an…
Planar Statistics Point Cloud Task
The Planar Surface Statistics Point Cloud Task attributes a user drawn polygon with planar extraction statistics. It defines the best fit plane and computes the quality of fit values, which are stored as attributes on the shape file. It also serves as a diagnostic tool to facilitate the setting of planar filter settings. Statistics given…
Topographic monitoring at the restoration of the Somolinos quarry using LP360 (English subs)

One way of using these commands is by incorporating them into MS-DOS style batch scripts. Another is by configuring corresponding commands and checklist steps within the GeoCue workflow software…
Enabling Deprecated Geoids
When updated Geoid models are released by NGS, GeoCue is updated to reflect these changes. The previous geoids still exist within the program, they are however disabled. We do this because NGS states for example that, “When using the geoid models, please be advised that GEOID12B should supersede previous models GEOID12 and GEOID12A.” If there…
