LiDAR360 8.2.2 is a comprehensive point cloud post-processing and industry application software developed by GreenValley International, designed for handling large-scale LiDAR data (up to TB-level processing). It includes over 700 tools for visualizing, manipulating, classifying, and analyzing point clouds from various sources like airborne, mobile, terrestrial, and UAV LiDAR systems. The software supports applications in fields such as surveying, forestry, urban planning, mining, powerline inspection, and environmental monitoring.
LiDAR360 8.2.2 appears to be a minor update within the LiDAR360 V8 series, building on the foundational framework introduced in V8. This framework provides core functionalities like data management, automatic strip alignment, point cloud classification, and efficient interaction with massive datasets. Minor updates like 8.2.2 are typically free for users with an active V8 license.
Key Features (Based on V8 Framework)
- Data Processing: Handles point cloud data from multiple platforms; supports automatic error correction for equipment, placement, and trajectory issues.
- Analysis Tools: Includes modules for terrain extraction (e.g., slope analysis, ground point classification), forestry (biomass calculation), mining (volume change, earthwork), and powerline inspection.
- Visualization and Export: Generates geospatial products like 3D models, sections, and reports; integrates LiDAR with imagery for fusion-based analysis.
- AI and Automation: Leverages machine learning for tasks like building attribute extraction (e.g., footprint area, height) and vegetation penetration for accurate ground surveys.
