ECE’s latest webinar, Importing CAD and CAE data into AFT Fathom 10 has been posted!  Check out the webinar for information on the import capability recently added to Fathom 10.  (Register here to get access to the recorded webinar)

Topics include:

• *.PCF import into Fathom 10 for model generation. Using the neutral piping component file format (PCF) which can be exported out of any major plant design package, we can now import this data into Fathom 10 to quickly generate all necessary pipe lengths, elevations, and fitting losses automatically.
• *.CII import into Fathom 10 for model generation. Using the CAESAR II neutral file, exported out of CAESAR II, we can now import the piping data into Fathom 10 to quickly generate all necessary pipe lengths, elevations, and fitting losses automatically.

ECE’s latest webinar, What’s new in Leica Technology 2018 has been posted!

Check out the webinar for information on both recent hardware and software enhancements in the Leica portfolio.   (Register here to get access to the recorded webinar)

Topics include:

• .LGS, The new Leica data format. All Leica software has been  updated to include the capability to work with Leica’s new data format, *.LGS.  This new format is compatible across Leica’s entire software suite in a highly compact file.
• IR capability in all software. Any infrared data collected from the Leica BLK360 can now be collected and inspected across Cyclone, Cloudworx, REGISTER360, and Jetstream Viewer.
• JetStream Viewer enhancements View IR, HDR, or CAD data in JetStream Viewer, compatible with the new *.LGS file format.
• Support for Leica’s RTC360 Walkthrough of a RTC360 project imported into Cyclone REGISTER360 with Auto-alignment thanks for the RTC’s VIS technology.

Using 3DReshaper we have by far, the easiest way to extract ground points for generating contour lines from a point cloud.  Watch the 3 minute video here.

Simply hit the ground extractor, generate your Digital Terrain Model (DTM), and create contour lines.  No pre-cleaning of the cloud required.  Contour lines can then be imported directly into AutoCAD.  Buildings, fences, bushes, trees, are all removed automatically.
