Uploading Viametris data

More about Viametris devices here: Viametris.

The data expected by Cintoo Connect from Viametris Mobile Indoor devices is the following:

1. The unstructured point cloud in E57 format
2. The walking /scanning path in XYZ format

Copying / pasting the XYZ file in the Images folder

Viametris software will export scanning path in a file named xxx_Camera.xyz in a folder called SensorTrajectories. Manually copy this file and paste it in a corresponding images folder, so that it’s located in the same folder than the corresponding panoramic images.

Importing Viametris data using Cintoo Connect:

• Select Mobile Scan from Add dropdown menu in a selected project and Work Zone.
• Select Mobile Laser Scans tab.
• Select Viametris Backpack Mobile Scanner

• Select E57 point cloud and XYZ scanning path to use as input files
• Modify Positions sampling value as needed:
  • For example, 4 will create 1 scan location for every 4 panoramic images included in scanning path.
  • Number of 3D scans and average distance between each one will be indicated in Cintoo Connect and will be added to scan count.
• Regarding Blur faces advanced option: 
  • It is checked by default, thus enabling the automatic blurring of people captured in any panoramic images included in scans being uploaded to Cintoo.
  • Uncheck this option to prevent automatic blurring any people in panoramic images.
  • Blurring cannot be undone in Cintoo after scans have been uploaded.
  • Any files uploaded without Blur faces option enabled must be deleted from Cintoo project and re-uploaded with the option checked in order to apply automatic blurring.
• Click Import
• Check Messages tab from time to time to see if the process is running smoothly
• New 3D scans will appear one by one in Cintoo project
