Comparing Modeled Objects to Original Points in this example
(analyzed at .005 m (.5 cm) / average distance of deviation/ absolute value)
I. CloudWorx – three section cuts in the x or y direction – lofted in the z (up) direction to create 3D solid column:
· 7% of the mesh faces (ie: 484 of 6,914) were above .5 cm deviation from point cloud
[wptabtitle] CLOUDWORX 2[/wptabtitle]
[wptabcontent]
II. Cloudworx – 1 section cut in the z direction (representing 1/2 the column from outside edge to center) – revolved around center axis to create 3D solid column
· 43% of the mesh faces (ie: 6,055 of 14,160) were above the .5 cm deviation from point cloud
[wptabtitle] CYCLONE[/wptabtitle]

III. Cyclone – Mesh created in Cyclone from point cloud
· < 1% of the mesh faces (ie: 977 of 334,133) were above the .5 cm deviation from point cloud
