Working with Pointcloud files in UE5

In this session, we delved into the basic workflow of using Laser Scan Data (E57) inside UE5 by using a native plugin called LIDAR Plugin.

  • The E57 file format is a compact, vendor-neutral format for storing point clouds, images, and metadata produced by 3D imaging systems, such as laser scanners (like the Leica BLK 360 G1 we have at CG Lab). You can import the E57 3D point cloud data into 3D and architecture, engineering, and design applications.
  • A point cloud is a 3D description of spatial data consisting of geometric points in space, as measured by capture devices. These points typically represent the 3D shape of a physical object. Each point position has its set of Cartesian coordinates (X, Y, Z). Point clouds are most commonly used to capture the existing (as-built) conditions of a structure. Point cloud data is commonly used to extract analysis from these structures, and to import into 3D design and BIM software workflows.
