How to export planes created by Ransac

Post by willemvh »

Hi Daniel,

I used Ransac to detect planes in a DSM, which works great for my data.
I can export the Ransac result, but I only get grouped points

I want to export the planes, created by Ransac as well, so I can use them to create a model.

Could you help me out with this?

Best regards,
Willem

Where do you want to export the planes to?

Planes can be saved as standard 'triangular' meshes (OBJ, PLY, STL). But that's all for now...

Hi Daniel,

I want to process them further in tools like QGis, FME or ArcGis.
You did put me on the right track, but this required me to export every single plane.

However, using 'select children by type and/or name' I could select all planes and export them a dxf in one action.
I will now try to run it from commandline using Cloudcompare 2.9a

Thanks for the support,
Willem
