Simple to View & Measure via Web or via Local Files Point cloud data is available in a format analogous to Adobe PDF’s. Just like using PDF, the reader is free and no formal training is required. Leica TruView enables the same free, easy viewing & measuring via the web or from files stored on your PC, an internal network or from a CD or DVD. Leica TruView is available as a free download from the Leica Geosystems HDS website. Intuitive Viewing Leica TruView lets professionals view, zoom and pan in point clouds intuitively. Simple controls let you rotate each panoramic view just as if you were turning, raising or lowering your head. You can zoom in or pan at will. Easy Measuring, Markups and Hyperlinks In TruView, users can click on a pixel in the image and extract real 3D coordi- nates or click on two pixels and extract distances. Results appear right on the point cloud image. Markups and hyperlinks are also easy to create, save and share with your peers, your service provider, or with clients for more effective communications. Versatile Publishing For web-based sharing and viewing you can easily post TruView data files for immediate access anywhere in the world. Users can also pack up the files and distribute them directly as a file set on a CD, DVD, etc. Point cloud data from Leica HDS scanners or any scanner with ASCII-based output can be published for use with Leica TruView. Added Features In addition to simple viewing, measurement, and markup, users can also control units of measure; extract coordinates; use call-out “leaders”, text, rectangles and circles for markups; save specific views and markups with an associated camera view; and create simple “site maps” with easy-to-find scanner locations for point cloud viewing.
