Add 3d points in Point Cloud

Post by doraCC18 »

Hello,
I have developed a program in Matlab that unwraps cylindrical surfaces using only a dense point cloud. I have a problem though because the point cloud I want to unwrap represents a cylindrical roof and it has "holes" no points in the areas of the roof windows. I would like to add points in these areas with white color and I was wondering if there is any automatic way in CloudCompare so that I can add points every 3mm in order to fill the gaps that the windows have created.

Thank you in advance
Theodora

Not really.

You can still cut out the points on the border of the holes, either fit a plane (if they are on a flat surface) or create a 2.5D mesh (with Delaunay) and eventually sample points on the generated plane/mesh.
