I have some pooint clouds in laz format that were produces using SLAM devices. They don’t have camera information. This format is not supported by RalityCapture. So I used Cloudcompare to export the laz to e57 or ply. With e57 the software just crashes. With ply I get the message “The file doesn’t contain any cameras” and “Failed to import he laser scan”. So how can I import such a laz file?
Hello @GeorgiosZap
The LAS format and handheld laser scans are not supported by RealityCapture.
This scan needs to be changed to ordered: Create Ordered Point Cloud From Unordered | Tutorial
Also, just resaving the scan in CloudCompare not always works, as the TLSs are not saved there.
Hello
Since handheld SLAM devices are becoming more and more used these days, I think it’s time to implement into the software las and laz file import.
Also, the tutorial you mentioned works only if you have access to FARO software.
