>>> Point Cloud Processing

  • The Large Data Processing video shows large data handing by using Level-of-Detail display:
    a) For large data sets that may require a lot of physical memory it is helpful to have a simplified version of the data that can be manipulated. Using Level-of-Detail (LOD) models saves physical memory and speeds up processing while working with large data.
    b) Process large data sets in excess of 13 million triangles on the computer (CPU 2.5GHz, 250MB of RAM)
