Description

If a cloud has 'scan grids' associated, this tool allows to create fast and robust meshes.

Scan grids come with 'structured' clouds (typically loaded from Faro, E57, PCD or other file types that support structured clouds).

The only parameter required is the 'Minimum triangle angle' (in degrees). This parameters allows to automatically discard very acute triangles, that generally correspond to abrupt change of depth (i.e. different layers).
