Point Cloud Formats

CVB supports the following types of point cloud formats:

 

Name

Extension

Polygon File Format

ply

Wavefront OBJ

obj

Stereo Lithography

stl

TIFF

tif, tiff

ASCII

asc, pts, txt, xyz

 

CVB only works with 3D points and no point relationships like lines, faces, triangles.
With point cloud formats who can handle this information (ply, obj, stl) only the raw 3D points will be read and saved.
As the STL format only supports polygon data, it can't be written in CVB.
