Description

Reconstructor is a multi-sensor and multi-resolution software worldwide appreciated for its performance and capabilities. It is composed of a core module and two add-ons for Color or Mining applications and one for HERON data processing. Reconstructor is also available in the Educational version.

Main features:

Processing of point clouds and raw data from several laser scanners (terrestrial, handheld, mobile, airborne)
Integration of point cloud models from UAV and photogrammetric surveys
Automatic target-less registration of 3D scans from various instruments
Colourization of point clouds with RGB images from high-res cameras
Creation of mesh models - Computation of volumes, areas, profiles, contour lines
Direct export of outputs and formats to the main third-party software (e.g ReCap Pro)
