Cyclone-REGISTER provides the complete set of tools for aligning point clouds captured from different scanning positions, quickly and accurately. Cyclone-REGISTER supports the use of Leica Geosystems HDS targets to geo-reference scan data, as well as the ability to align overlapping areas of point clouds ? without the use of targets. This results in optimum registration, and provides significant time- and cost-savings by reducing the need to place and extract targets.
