Point clouds have a scale of about 350x400m and each one resulted by the merge of four different scan positions. All the point clouds are composed by 61M points. Attached you can find the distribution of volume density (in m) and the roughness of a flat portion of the moraine. I tried with the param...

Dear Daniel, I am using M3C2 plugin applied to two lidar scans in order to quantify the geomorphological change of a moraine trough time. I read the article explaining how M3C2 works and I have understand that roughness is an important parameter influencing normals computation, and thus the real dis...

Yes it is a terrain data and Z is the vertical orientation. I will also try with the M3C2 distance for compare the two methods.

Thank you so much for the answer!

Hi, I have several LiDAR scans of a valley wall (steep slope) and I would like to detect geomorphological changes trough time. In order to find both erosion and deposition pattern distribution, I want to convert my reference cloud in a mesh and than use compute point to mesh distance tool. My proble...
