This package contains tools to query, inspect and plot transects from point clouds, grids and shapefiles.
Tool: Profile Plotter
Features |
---|
• generation of profile plots from a table or shapefile |
• profile is output as point and line shapefiles |
• zooming, panning, and measurement of distances |
• user-defined colorization |
Application |
---|
• creation of plots from transects queried from point clouds, grids or shapefiles |
• measurement of, e.g., building heights or the interspace between high-voltage power lines and the terrain |
Tool: Profile from Contour Shapes
Features |
---|
• generation of transects from both 2D and 3D contour line shapefiles |
• profile line can be provided by line shapefile |
• output as 3D point shapefile |
Application |
---|
• generation of transects |
Tool: Profile from Grids
Features |
---|
• query of transects from one or more grid data sets |
• optionally together with a point cloud |
• profile line(s) can be provided as line shapefile, coordinate list, or start/end coordinates |
• flipping of the profile direction, optional |
• splitting of the profile into two parts (negative/positive), optional |
• application of profile offset, optional |
• vertical exaggeration, optional |
• output as point/line shapefile |
Application |
---|
• generation of transects / cross sections |
• quality control (point cloud vs. grid) |
• multitemporal change detection (grid stack) |
Tool: Profile from Grids [interactive]
Features |
---|
• query of transects from one or more grid data sets |
• optionally together with a point cloud |
• profile line is digitized in a Map View |
• vertical exaggeration, optional |
• automatic generation of profile plots, optional |
• output as point/line shapefile |
• digitized profile line is output as shapefile |

Tool: Profile from Point Cloud
Features |
---|
• query of transects from a point cloud data set |
• optionally together with a grid data set |
• profile line can be provided as line shapefile, coordinate list, or start/end coordinates |
• width of the queried corridor can be specified |
• flipping of the profile direction, optional |
• splitting of profile into two parts (negative/positive), optional |
• application of profile offset, optional |
• vertical exaggeration, optional |
• attachment point cloud attributes to the result, optional |
• displacement between each point and the profile line is reported |
• output as point shapefile (point cloud is optional) |
