ReMark Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 AutoCAD 2010. Hmmm. You could look into using Point Cloud for AutoCAD (an AutoCAD plug-in) by a company called SYCODE. There are 32-bit and 64-bit versions. A 7 day license will cost you $19.99. Point Cloud for AutoCAD can drape a surface over a point cloud or wrap a mesh around a point cloud. I thought of another option. Download a 30 day trial version of AutoCAD 2014 as it has a point cloud feature included. As posted at the JTBWorld website: "Point cloud functionality is enhanced in AutoCAD 2014 to support inserting of Point Cloud Project (RCP) and Scan (RCS) files produced by Autodesk ReCap in addition to the previously supported PCG and ISD formats."

Organic Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Try the CadTools program for AutoCad (it's free): http://www.glamsen.se/CadTools.htm Whether it works or not will depend how many points are in your point cloud I suspect.
