Tools Designed for Efficiency

Massive 3D rendering, Smooth navigation

Effortlessly view point clouds containing billions of points. Our optimized engine ensures unmatched smoothness, even with large scans.

Enjoy exceptional rendering that will make your work sessions a pleasure.

Various measurements and analyses

Take measurements that are perfectly tailored to your industry, such as measurements between pipes or between surfaces. All measurements are recorded as actual objects.

Perform flatness analyses on multiple surfaces simultaneously.

Segmentation

Enrich your data with custom tags and annotations. Manage information directly within the point cloud for in-depth inspection and analysis.

Enriched annotations

While most solutions offer only one clipping box, OpenScanTools lets you activate hundreds of them, as well as use pipes, tags, and measurements.

You can also apply color-based segmentation.

Exports

This is an OpenScanTools exclusive: viewpoints store all camera, visibility, and rendering settings. This allows you to switch from a color overview to a monochrome cross-section view with transparency with just one click.

Viewpoints will save you a considerable amount of time.

HD Images and orthoimages - Animations

Quickly create very high-definition images and orthoimages. You can even turn your point clouds into true works of art.

The animation module lets you easily create high-quality sequences.

Viewpoints

Export your segmented / filtered point cloud in various formats (e57, pts, tls, rcs/rcp).

Export the objects in dxf, obj, fbx, csv, step.

User coordinates

Scantra (edited by Technet GmbH) is a highly effective software tool for registering scanning campaigns, even the largest ones. Scantra can connect to OpenScanTools to quickly view the quality of the registration.

Thermal scan

Import your thermal camera-colored scans, view temperatures, and easily find the minimum and maximum temperatures.
