M3C2 Plugin

Well just an idea,

1. Export the two cloud Z coordinate to SF
2. Flatten the two cloud by setting Z coord to zero (create a new SF with static zero, then set coordinate from sf
3. Interpolate one of the cloud Z sf to the other one ( do not overwrite original.
4. Interpolate one of the cloud Z SF from the other one.
5. Convert SF to coord (the calculated distance)
6. Use rasterize tool to calculate 2.5d volume. If the clouds dense enough it will create a good enough calculation.

Thank you for this, but I am struggling with step 2-5.

I went ahead and just ran the 2.5d calculation. Is the volume result in meters cubed?

It is in your cloud's unit cubed, so if your cloud is in meter then the volume is m^3

Hi there,

I exported my M3c2 field as a raster and imported it into qgis. Now i cannot find a find a way on how to export or safe my scalar field display ranges so i can display them in qgis as well. I tried multi band color or singleband pseudocloro in qgis but nothing worked so far.

I would appreciate any ideas and help :)

Well, I'm not an expert in QGis or rasters in general, but clearly display features are not saved in a raster file. You'll have to recreate the color scale manually in QGis (at least this part should be possible).

But maybe other users will have better ideas ;)
