3rd Party Lidar Data and Custom Intensity Ranges

    Hello,

    Question 1, most likely a TBC feature request:

    From what I gather there are no advanced point cloud rendering options in TBC to visualize on custom scalar fields or to create custom color scales? When importing LAS data from other manufacturers the scalar values often do not match. For instance, clouds can come in completely red if the intensity values are much lower than what TBC expects. Is there a solution to this? Can we get more advanced rendering tools in TBC, maybe something similar to cloud compare ability to visualize on any of the scalar fields?


    Question 2, general LiDAR question:

    For those who work in TBC with varies LiDAR datasets, have you found a good solution/workflow to mixing LiDAR data and getting the intensity values to more closely align? Maybe LAStools or cloud compare scripts that you run on your non-trimble LiDAR data to get things to match more closely?

    Thanks
