Hi Ahmed,
you will have to export the pointclouds from Leica Cyclone to .e57.
As fas as I know, there is no stand-alone converter, since .imp is leicas properitory format.
Cheers!

What's an IMP file? At least I'm sure CC doesn't handle this format :D

PTX should be your default choice (it stores the scanner positions). Otherwise PTS / TXT / XYZ (all are generic ASCII files).
