Input Data

Coltop3D can import LIDAR and photogrammetry point clouds and Digital Elevation Models. The software computes for each point an estimation of its orientation.

Structural Analysis

Coltop3D is a powerful tool for extracting and highlighting structural features, thanks to its unique selection tool. Selected data can be shown on Stereonet plots and basics statistics are computed.

Stereoplot Formatting

A complete module for the visualization and formatting of stereoplots is under development and will be deployed in future versions.

Data Visualization

Coltop3D provides many types of coloring schemes, notably its outstanding combination of a Stereonet plot and a computer graphics Hue-Saturation-Luminosity wheel. Hence, any Dip/Dip direction is mapped to a unique color. Structural features (joints, faults, folds) are easily detected.

Data Exporting

Coltop3D provides an easy mechanism for exporting data to third party software. Data format can be completely customized by the user.
