Leica CloudPro Intelligent point cloud processing for Leica ALS

Leica CloudPro
Intelligent point cloud processing
for Leica ALS-series LIDAR
One for all: Leica CloudPro
Want to get data processed fast, in your desired format and projection … without having to leave your point cloud
generation software? Don’t waste valuable upload/download time going to additional software packages to get data
in the right projection. Process large point clouds, even in the field on a laptop computer.
Make it your own and cut processing time even further by running Leica CloudPro remotely via the built-in
command-line interface in your custom workflows.
Cut costs by running a fleet of workstations from a single licence server, allowing the entire office to access
Leica CloudPro as they need it without buying a licence for every workstation.
Leica CloudPro
Fast, Flexible, Functional…
Fast…
nnUp to 700,000 points per second on a
laptop computer1, including data loading
and point cloud saving
System Requirements
Flexible…
nnLeica XPro projection engine provides 12
different projection types and 461 unique
projections, allowing data to be output
in nearly all region-specific coordinate
systems
nnEditable grid_parameters file allows
creation of new projections as needed
nnRun unlimited instances on the same
machine for multi-flight processing
nnRun within your customised workflows
using the built-in command-line interface,
or directly access Leica CloudPro from
GeoCue2 job management software for
off-the-shelf distributed processing
capabilities3
nnLeica CloudPro is the first point
cloud generation software from any
manufacturer to be directly accessed
by GeoCue
Functional…
nnProcessing and calibrations settings are
stored in unique flight-line-tagged XML
files for ultimate traceability in processed
data. Get a definitive record of the
calibration constants and data processing
settings used for each LAS file processed,
for the exact moment processing was
completed. No more guessing about
what settings were used to process a
given data set.
nnGenerate beautiful full-resolution TIFF

Custom projections
12 generic projection types for creation of user-defined projections
(via editing of grid_parameters file), including: Transverse Mercator, Cassini
Soldner (transverse equidisant cylindrical), HOM (Hotine Oblique Mercator),
Lambert Conformal, Mercator, Polar Stereographic, Polyconic, Stereographic,
UTM, New Zealand, Sinusoidal, OCC
Processing filters
GPS time, subsampling ratio, range, min/max scan angle, edge clip
nnServe multiple licenses from a single license server with Flex-Net
floating license system; purchase only as many licenses as you need
to run simultaneously, not one for each workstation.
nnInput and output filters allow processing to be limited to a specific
spatial range, speeding up processing for localised portions of a job
nnAdditional output filters available for special applications using
various system attributes (e.g., scan angle, scan direction, etc.)
nnBundled with Leica AHAB LSS Viewer; see and make measurements
from point clouds immediately after generating them
