i don't have any faro data but we shoot our pointclouds with 2 or 3 camera and generate them with agisoft. Although not as accurate it still give's us shitloads of data. PFtrack can handle al this data pretty easy i must say, and you can attach your pointcloud data to your plates and it's within seccond pinpoint accurate. maybe worth a try :)
