Guidance for uploading Point Clouds:

1. Uploading multiple point clouds in the same scene

Without EPSG

All clouds must be uploaded in one go for the point clouds to be automatically stitched together. Note these clouds still need to be registered / coordinated together.

With EPSG

If there are numerous point clouds uploaded at the same time, ATLAS may combine these files for optimisation.

Uploading point clouds to the same scene at different times

Scan Views

If the scan views are present in the point clouds, ATLAS will automatically created saved views for these locations.
