A suite of software

Maptek has released new scan processing software that can be used in face mapping, pit survey and stockpile measurement.

According to the company, the software is combined with an intuitive user interface that relies on drag and drop functionality.

The software automatically detects the presence of a USB storage device and prompts the option to import scan files from it.

The software is compatible with Optech file formats, allowing system users to realise the benefits of the most effective solution for point cloud data processing, according to the manufacturer.

Additional import/export upgrades include the ability to customise ASCII file formats, group text formats into scans, points and survey points categories and customise imported ASCII file formats by specifying parameters used in each column. This allows 3D point data from different sources to be imported without reformatting the data file initially. All settings can be saved for later use.
