CloudCompare forum

Hi,

I was wondering if there is any tool in cloud compare that can convert points into poly line. I have trajectory data which is in points and I want to make it a line so that I could use it for extracting the sections.

You can either 'trace' the polyline by clicking on some points (with the 'Tools > Trace polyline' tool), or use some automated approaches (such as the 'Cross Section' contour/envelope extraction option if it fits your needs - see https://www.cloudcompare.org/doc/wiki/i ... e_envelope).
