GeoCue’s repository of articles covering tools, tips, and workflows for processing point clouds in LP360 Geospatial.
The Tree Segmentation tool can be used on a forested dataset to identify and count the number of trees within an area of interest while also generating two output files: a LAS point cloud to visualize the individual trees and a point feature that contains the height and crown surface area of each tree with…
In configuring a set of control points or check points for use in the Control Points Report Dialog, it is best to follow the convention below to make the most use of the Drive Mode shortcuts available within the toolbar for navigation and filtering. The fields either need to exist in the shapefile or may…
For comparing multiple datasets in a single profile view in the exact same location, all of the Point Source IDs will need to be edited and combined into one LAS layer on import. Before bringing this exercise, import all the desired datasets into a single project, then copy the LAS layers (right-click the layer, selected…
When LP360 is initially installed, there are several default files that also get installed. These default files include Point Cloud Tasks, Conflation Tasks and Display Filters. The files can be found in your “%AppData%\LP360” folder. The tasks and filters are stored in XML files and each time a new task or filter is created the information is appended…
A Ground Control Point (GCP) is a monumented point for which geodesic coordinates are known with a controlled accuracy and precision. It can be provided by a National Geodetic Authority or made by the user. Several topographic survey techniques can be used to determine the coordinates of a GCP (GNSS, geodetic network adjustment from distance,…
LP360 contains a number of “non-obvious” commands (usually keyboard activated shortcuts). This page has been updated for LP360 v2022.1. General: Live View – When opened in one view can be left open and by clicking the Live View button in a different view the settings will change to that view’s current stateChange Languages – See the separate…
While exporting data from LP360 using the Export Wizard a COM Exception, “Exporting LAS files failed (22684)”, is encountered. “Caller’s Message:Exporting LAS files failed. (22684)Exception Information:HRESULT: 0x80004005Unable to retrieve extended COM error information.” Is there another file in that location with the same name? Do you have any LAS files that contain only a single…
