Draw lines on point cloud

Open Antony2784 opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

I was trying to mark points and draw lines or grids on point cloud data only where there is a tree from a rosbag, which was saved after running the SLAM algorithm on a bag file containing lidar data using cloud compare, Matlab or ROS environment.

Is there a way to do this?

Please ask for any further info needed.

some thing like this lines_on_trees

Well, if you manage to load your cloud in CloudCompare, then you have the 'Trace polyline' tool that allows you to manually draw polyline on a cloud (and there's an auto-snap feature that might help). But it won't look as regular as that...

There's also the automatic section extraction tool that can automatically sample transverse 'profiles' along a trajectory. See https://www.cloudcompare.org/doc/wiki/index.php/Extract_Sections#Orthogonal_sections_generation
