Getting CloudPoints for separate scans

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hello,

 

I'm trying to get separate point collections for each scan contained in a point cloud using the API. So far I have discovered the functions to get the scan names, the scan origins and fetch point subsets using a PointCloudFilter which allows me to select points contained in possibly unbounded, convex volumes.

 

Is it currently possible to get the point subsets belonging to the individual scans directly or do I have to implement my own point cloud engine?

Hi Sebastian,

 

if you use the internal Revit Point Cloud Engine, you can only apply a point cloud filter to the whole point cloud instance. Thus it isn't possible to get a point collection only from one scan!
