feature verticality

Post by FloHechi »

Hello everyone,
To calculate the verticality, I have to write in the classifier

feature: Z_SCx_STD_PC1

or is there another way to calculate the verticality?

There is no separate feature for verticality, is there?
Like for linearity or planarity, for example.

I don't think that Z_SCx_STD_PC1 is the verticality as defined in "Contour detection in unstructured 3D point clouds", Hackel et al, 2016.

I will add the VERT option to the features list, this will give the same result as the verticality computed with "Tools/Others/Compute geometric features".

Reminder: scales in 3DMASC are diameters, "Compute geometric features" uses a radius. Mind the factor 2.

The code of the plugin has been updated. VERT should be available as a feature in a future release of CloudCompare.
