Point cloud models are created from a list of points in a 3D area that are collected by various sources including 3D scanners. TerraExplorer supports both the loading of point cloud files in Skyline's proprietary CPT file format, as well as the import of point cloud data in the following formats: LAS/LAZ, PTS, TXT, XYZ, and E57 . When imported, these files are converted to a unified, visualization and stream-optimized Skyline-proprietary Point Cloud file (CPT) format using the Convert Point Cloud to CPT tool.
