CloudCompare forum

I'm using a point cloud that has a high number of duplicate points. This is because i'm using radar to image objects.

What I want to know is can I color points by the number of duplicates that exist? I.E. I've got 28 duplicates at one point at 5 at another, can I color those points based on that quantity?

Thanks

You could compute the cloud density (with 'Tools > Other > Compute geometric features'), select the 'Number of neighbors' output (in the 'Density' section), and input a very small radius (at the top). I guess it should work as long as the radius is small enough to isolate each point individually (well, each point and its duplicates ;).
