how to create mesh of a sparse point cloud?

Post by JamesRayen »

Hi, Daniel, I want to create 3D Triangulated Irregular Network using CC, I load a point cloud with RGB and scalar field and the use 'Edit->Mesh->Delaunay 2.5D(best fitting plane)' to create a mesh. However, I found this function seems to create 2D Delaunay and the created mesh seems incorrect. Is there any function in CC that could create a mesh for sparse point cloud? Or to create 3D Delaunay?

If you want a real "3D" Mesh (mind the 2.5D in "Delaunay 2.5D" ;), you should take a look at the qPoissonRecon plugin: https://www.cloudcompare.org/doc/wiki/i ... n_(plugin)
