Leica Geosystems Announces Leica Cyclone VIEWER Pro: Affordable 3D visualization, measurement, markup and data exchange software for point clouds and models
3 March 2008
Leica Geosystems, the market leader in laser scanning products, announced at the SPAR 2008 conference Leica Cyclone VIEWER Pro. This new software includes a powerful set of features for full 3D visualization, measurement, markup and data exchange of laser scan data and 3D models – priced very affordably for new, casual, or single-task users.
Leica Cyclone VIEWER Pro is intended for new, casual or limited-task users of High-Definition Survey™ (HDS™) laser scan data. This includes staff who may not need to process scan data into models or maps, but who may need to:
- perform specific data exchange tasks,
- view scan data & models in 3D and extract various types of measurements,
- markup laser scan and model data.
Leica Cyclone VIEWER Pro now adds valuable features to Cyclone VIEWER, Leica Geosystems’ free software for “viewing-only” of 3D point clouds & models. Previously, this group of features was only available in products priced several times higher than Cyclone VIEWER Pro. Now, even beginners, occasional users, or single-task users can benefit from Leica Geosystems quality without having to pay the price of a complete software package or cut back on expectations of performance.
Valuable Set of Features
Leica Cyclone VIEWER Pro gives users the ability to access native Cyclone point cloud data for measurement or other inspections, for redlining and markup, or for back-office operations such as data importing and exporting. This new module isolates the following valuable features:
- Full suite of 3D viewing options such as fly-through, limit boxes and rendering options,
- Import and Export of all the most important data formats,
- Redlining annotation tools,
- Wide variety of measurement tools.
“Try Before You Buy”
Since VIEWER Pro is intended for many new and casual users, Leica Cyclone VIEWER Pro is provided with a free, automatic five-day, one-time trial period. Users who download the Leica Cyclone installer and install Cyclone without any license will automatically receive a 5-day trial license of Cyclone VIEWER Pro.
This free trial period approach not only allows users to “try-before-they-buy”, but also supports the growing demand for widespread use of Cyclone-based data by allowing short term data transfer, measurement, and redline markup capabilities with no software cost to the end user.
Pricing and Availability
This product is immediately available now and pricing is available from authorized Leica Geosystems representatives.
