Details of release items

1. “Vertical Difference” measurement newly added to line annotation.

<Description>

It is now possible to calculate the vertical difference of each vertex of a line annotation.

1)Create a line annotation and measure the “Vertical difference”.

2)The height difference at each vertex is shown graphically.

6. JXL format is now available as localization file

<Description>

JXL format is now supported as a file format for localization, making it more convenient to use in integration with Trimble.

8. Added the ability to add a Bleak line to the unwanted object removal area in the Survey Edit function.

<Description>

Previously, the point cloud editing function for removing unwanted objects could only attach a plane to the area to be removed, making it impossible to remove a bridge over a valley. Now, a function to add a break line to the unwanted object removal area has been added, allowing the user to specify the removal area more flexibly.

Specifying a Break line in Survey Edit

After specifying the removal area, break lines can be added by holding down Shift and clicking on the screen.

Specified break lines

Once new object removal area has created and saved, the removal area will be divided along the break line and start processing of the point cloud retiling.

Terrain after completion of survey edit

After editing with break lines, the point cloud is staked along the slope!

Reference: Conventional point cloud editing.

Previously, it was only possible to attach planes over unwanted objects, so structures such as bridges could not be properly removed.
