NG Net PLLC

Already Have Scan Data? We Can Help Finish the Workflow.

Field collection is only one part of Reality Capture.

NG Net PLLC can receive client-provided terrestrial LiDAR, SLAM, mobile LiDAR, aerial LiDAR, photogrammetric, or other compatible point-cloud datasets and provide the processing, verification, georeferencing, organization, conversion, and final preparation required for continued project use.

This service is appropriate for clients who have already collected data internally or received scan data from another project participant but need specialized Reality Capture support to complete the workflow.

Processing Services

Depending on the condition of the source data and project requirements, services may include:

• Review of supplied scan data
• Scan registration
• Registration review
• Cloud-to-cloud alignment
• Dataset combination
• Point-cloud organization
• Data cleanup
• Colorization where source imagery is available
• Georeferencing
• Integration with supplied survey control
• Coordinate-system verification
• Coordinate transformation
• Vertical datum review
• Registration QA/QC
• Positional verification
• Identification of alignment or control issues
• Point-cloud conversion
• Final dataset preparation

Survey Control & Georeferencing

If survey control or known project coordinates are available, they can be incorporated into the processing workflow to verify or georeference the point-cloud dataset.

Where appropriate, NG Net PLLC can also evaluate whether additional field control or independent verification would improve the reliability of the final data.

The required level of control depends on the intended use of the dataset. Not every Reality Capture project requires survey-controlled positioning, while engineering, surveying, infrastructure, and construction applications may require a defined spatial reference.

QA/QC

A point cloud can appear visually correct while still containing registration, positioning, coordinate-system, or vertical-reference problems.

QA/QC may therefore include evaluation of:

• Registration consistency
• Scan-to-scan alignment
• Control residuals
• Independent check points
• Coordinate-system consistency
• Vertical reference
• Dataset overlap
• Potential systematic offsets
• Completeness of the supplied information

Any limitations identified in the supplied data can be discussed with the client before final delivery.

Input & Output Formats

We can work with common Reality Capture and point-cloud formats depending on the originating software and available source information.

Common formats include:

RCP / RCS • E57 • LAS / LAZ • POD • PTS / PTX • XYZ

Final data can be converted or prepared for the client’s required CAD, engineering, surveying, GIS, visualization, or downstream processing environment.

If you use another commercial format, contact us with the software and data type. We can review compatibility before beginning the project.

The Objective

You provide the Reality Capture data. We help turn it into an organized, verified, usable deliverable.
