3D Point Set Reference

Simon Giraudot

This component provides the user with a flexible 3D point set data structure. The user can define any additional property needed such as normal vectors, colors or labels. CGAL algorithms can be easily applied to this data structure.

I/O Functions

This package offers convenience overloads for the class CGAL::Point_set_3 of the input/ouput functions available in the Point Set Processing package. These overloads, available after including CGAL/Point_set_3/IO.h, allow the user to call point set processing algorithms without having to handle manually property maps and iterators.

• CGAL::IO::read_point_set()
• CGAL::IO::write_point_set()
• I/O for LAS files
• I/O for OFF files
• I/O for PLY files
• I/O for XYZ files
