Comparison & Inspection

Quite often you need to compare two objects in order to:

• Inspect your measure with the reference CAD.

• Compare the created model with the original point cloud.

• Check the position of your scan.

• Etc.

In the software you can compare:

• A cloud with a mesh or a surface or a geometric feature.

• A cloud with another cloud.

• A mesh with another mesh, a surface or a geometric feature.

• A polyline with another polyline.

• A set of polylines with another set of polylines.

You can compute inspections only between 2 objects (you can use commands Merge Clouds, Group Mesh or Group CAD (if you want to group several objects).

The one selected first is the “Reference” and the other one is the “Measure”.
