CloudCompare forum

We agree that the default camera orientation and 3D view icons are not a unique design, as they appear in some CAD software programs. We also agree that "In a way it means that CloudCompare is a reference now". Many users are familiar with this intuitive interface and can quickly manipulat...

hi daniel， EasyPoint is something we have developed independently from the ground up. You might have confused EasyPoint with other software. Some software simply modifies CloudCompare, and we despise such actions. You can visit http://easypoint.xyz to view the software interface, or download and run...

Hi, all. Recently, we published a paper which extends CSF to deal with the photon point cloud of ICESat-2 (LiDAR mounted on a Satellite). The result is more accurate than NASA ALT08 product. EP4_4.png Chang B, Xiong H, Li Y, et al. ALCSF: An adaptive and anti-noise filtering method for extracting gr...

CSF is integrated in commercial photogrammetry software - 3DF Zephyr https://www.3dflow.net/ 3DF Zephyr is a photogrammetry software, like photoscan and visalsfm. It is fast and easy-to-use. 3DF Zephyr Free can process 50 photos. Now CSF is integrated in the newest version 4.0. You can find it in tw...

Investigating the performances of commercial and non-commercial software for ground filtering of UAV-based point clouds In the above paper, CSF was compared with the ground filtering algorithms of several softwares including Photoscan and Global Mapper. In the paper, they reported: The results show...

hi, Sile. You may try plugin CSF to get ground and non-ground points, and then use the method provided by Daniel. You can refer to our post at Researchgate:
How to calculate AGL (above ground level) height using CSF in Cloudcompare

A user asked us how to calculate AGL height (sometimes also called nDSM for buildings or CHM for trees) after DEM extraction by CSF (https://www.researchgate.net/post/Dose_your_toolkit_also_support_the_output_of_AGL_height). We give a possible solution. Thank you for using CSF. Currently, we don't h...

Hi, Daniel. Thank you for the corrections.

By the way, we are pleased to announce that CSF can be used in Python environment now. More details can be found here, https://www.researchgate.net/project/CS ... Simulation

@Deniel, There is something wrong with the article of CSF in several links, such as author and year. https://github.com/CloudCompare/CloudCompare/releases https://github.com/CloudCompare/CloudCompare/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md https://github.com/CloudCompare/CloudCompare/commit/76ed607c2898799c940105f...

@uasghar Sorry, we didn't log in recently. We are pleased to see qCSF is useful to your work. To your question, could you give more details, such as figures or part of point cloud? Regards. I tested your plugin today on Photogrammetrically point cloud consisting of over 80 million points, and I must...
