Ordered Point Cloud

Hello,
is it possible to convert a unordered point cloud to an ordered?
For Expample with 'Edit > Sensors > TLS/GBL > Create' ?
All programms that combine photogrammetry and poinc louds only use ordered clouds.
But our scanner produces only unordered.

Nope, it's not possible. But it wouldn't be too hard to code something if you know are able to create a sensor indeed (you mainly need the scanner position and orientation... and a C++ developer of course ;).

Thank you for your answer Daniel.
Unfotunately I am not a C++ developer and I don´t know any.
So pepople, if any C++ developer reads this, I need your help. I think this functionality would make a lot of people very happy!

Hi,
I am a C++ developer that is looking for a way to convert a unordered point cloud to an ordered one. We have point cloud data from our own laser scanning setup, so in theory it shouldn't be an issue to adapt the output to an ordered format.
However, I am not very familiar with ordered point clouds. Does anyone have an idea of where I could educate myself? Preferrably something related to the E57 or PTX file formats. I have found the
CloudCompare E57 code, but I think I would need some more documentation around structured point clouds to know where to start.
