CloudCompare
CloudCompare is an open source 3D point cloud and triangular mesh processing software. Originally developed for comparing dense 3D point clouds, it has evolved into a comprehensive tool for various 3D data processing tasks. The software offers functionalities such as projections, registration (e.g., ICP), distance computation between clouds or meshes, statistical analysis, segmentation, and geometric feature estimation. Users can handle multiple scalar fields per point cloud, apply algorithms like smoothing and gradient evaluation, and visualize data through dynamic color rendering. Interactive tools enable segmentation, rotation, translation, and measurement of 3D entities. CloudCompare supports numerous input/output formats and it is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux platforms. The software also features a plugin mechanism for extending its capabilities.

VrLiDAR
The task remains the same which is to extract intelligent data from images and (or) point cloud data (LiDAR, DSM, point clouds) in the form of vectors and attributes for various disciplines. VrThree (VrLiDAR) offers the ability for photogrammetry firms to utilize existing personnel and software while offering new and powerful tools for other mapping disciplines such as architecture, all types of surveying and engineering. VrThree (VrLiDAR) is software that integrates point cloud data into the time tested Vr Mapping Software packages, VrOne® and VrTwo. This package allows the display and editing of LiDAR point data in 2D and in true three-dimensional stereo. The four configurations available in VrThree enable vector, symbol and text entities to be collected and edited using the extensive VrOne®/VrTwo mapping tools. Mapping professionals now not only need the ability to collect three dimensional vector data from traditional photogrammetric sources.
