AWS Thinkbox Sequoia
AWS Thinkbox Sequoia is a standalone application for point cloud processing and meshing, compatible with Windows, Linux, and macOS operating systems. It accepts point cloud and mesh data in various industry-standard formats, converting point cloud data into a compact and fast-to-access intermediate cache format. Sequoia offers intelligent workflows to retain high-precision data efficiently, displaying all or a fraction of the point cloud data using adaptive view-dependent methods. Users can transform, cull, and modify point cloud data, generate meshes from point clouds, and optimize the produced meshes. The software supports projecting images onto points and meshes, generating mesh vertex colors, Ptex, or UV-based textures from point cloud colors and image projections. It exports resulting meshes to supported industry-standard mesh file formats and integrates with Thinkbox Deadline to perform point cloud data conversion, meshing, and export on network nodes.

CloudCompare
4.0 out of 5 stars
(1 Rating)
CloudCompare is an open source 3D point cloud and triangular mesh processing software. Originally developed for comparing dense 3D point clouds, it has evolved into a comprehensive tool for various 3D data processing tasks. The software offers functionalities such as projections, registration (e.g., ICP), distance computation between clouds or meshes, statistical analysis, segmentation, and geometric feature estimation. Users can handle multiple scalar fields per point cloud, apply algorithms like smoothing and gradient evaluation, and visualize data through dynamic color rendering. Interactive tools enable segmentation, rotation, translation, and measurement of 3D entities. CloudCompare supports numerous input/output formats and it is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux platforms. The software also features a plugin mechanism for extending its capabilities.
