Title: Convert Point Data to Polygon
Post by: Gary L on June 25, 2010, 06:57:52 AM
Does one of the Polyworks modules allow you to convert point data to polygon.

I only have IMAlign and IMInspect.

Thanks, Gary

IMMerge converts point cloud data to a polygonal model.  I only have used it for a dense point cloud from laser scanning.  Are you wanting to do this, or create big polygons from probed points?

If it is a dense point cloud, you could upload your data and one of us could create a polygonal model for you as a "demo".

IMInspect had the ability to wrap a mesh around data objects, which you can then export to a polygonal model.
