Hi Bernd, .rwcx is the proprietary point cloud output format of Trimble terrestrial laser scanners.
I am not aware of any open source software that can read this format. Your best chance for pointers to software that can handle this format would be a CAD/BIM or laser scanning forum. Once you have managed to convert this to something that is more interoperable (PLY or OBJ, for example), your next stops should be CloudCompare and/or MeshLab (the latter is extremely powerful but takes a lot of time to get used to).

Hi folks, in a project on a former dumpside now to be transformed into a sand lizard habitat, I saw the chance to get my hands dirty for the first time on 3D scan data (terrestrial). I received 10GB of stuff, and now I'm completely lost. The data consists of .rwcx files, .tzf files and lots of other stuff. Is there any chance that I can process any of this data with an open source stack? Or what should be done, to make them digestible? Second step: There seem to be 32 different scans of the area form all angles. In case I succeed to somehow load the data, how do I combine them ? For the first steps, I actually "only" would like to generate a decent DEM from the data to be able to place some features on a map for the guys in charge to do the habitat stuff. Any kind of hints or links to reads about this topic would be appreciated Cheers, Bernd _______________________________________________ Qgis-user mailing list [email protected] List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
