How to locate a terrain point cloud in its real position in Revit?

Hi. I have downloaded a point cloud of a terrain in .laz format and transformed it into .rcp using ReCap.

However, I am having trouble locating this point cloud in its real-world coordinates after importing to Revit.

Ensure your Revit project has a coordinate system that matches the point cloud's coordinate system. If you have a survey point or a known reference point in your Revit project, you can use that to align the point cloud.

Go to the "Manage" tab and select "Coordinates" → "Acquire Coordinates". Select a linked CAD file or another Revit project that has the correct coordinates and Acquire Coordinates
