Until now, LizardTech's customers, who widely use ArcGIS 3D Analyst, were not able to load point cloud In computer science, a point cloud is a set of three-dimensional points describing the outlines or surface features of an object, such as that produced by a 3D digitizer. datasets that were compressed to MrSID Generation 4 using LiDAR Compressor into ESRI's 3D Analyst product. However, with the release of this free plug-in, 3D Analyst users can load point cloud datasets compressed to MrSID Generation 4 to create surfaces for use in line-of-sight and terrain modeling, visualization, and spatial analysis. "LizardTech's goal is to give customers tools for using their point cloud data compressed with LiDAR Compressor in the applications they use every day," said Jon Skiffington, LizardTech director of marketing. "Many of our customers use ArcGIS, but were not able to use it with MrSID files created in LiDAR Compressor. Now our customers can easily load point cloud datasets compressed to MrSID Generation 4 into ESRI's 3D Analyst product."
