Planar analysis
- [Instructor] With As-Built, you can analyze the point cloud data in comparison to your UCS or fitted plane. For example, if you've scanned a floor, we can determine the flatness of that floor and see where they high and low spots are. There are many way to analyze points, but those are a little more advanced for a basic course. So for now, let's just take a look at the basic flatness workflow. So we're going to do an analysis on one of the concrete walkways in here. I've already created the section for us. So if you just turn on the walkway section, you'll see this is the area we're going to run our floor flatness analysis on. You can see where that sits in the plant. So the first thing I'm going to do is we're going to fit a plane to this. Now I'm just going to move my UCS. I'm just going to move this into the corner, just so that we've got our UCS set to zero. And I'm just going to grab my Y this way here, or my X this way and my Y that way. So that's going to give us zero, zero…
