Converting Freestyle2 and Swift Scans to Virtual Scans for SCENE2Go or Webshare Cloud

  1. Last updated
  2. Save as PDF

Overview

Freestyle 2 and Swift scans cannot be displayed as a Panorama View in SCENE2Go or Scene WebShare Cloud. They have to be converted to Virtual Scans first and can then be uploaded. Virtual scans are created from the point cloud data of already existing scans. After the virtual scans are created, they behave like scans which were recorded with a laser scanner. You can open a Virtual Scan in Quick View, Planar View, and 3D View. There are two methods to create virtual scans:

Method 1 (Freestyle 2 only)

  1. In the Structure View, right-click the scan, then click Operations > Create Virtual Scans.
  2. Enter the number of virtual scans which will be taken from a scan. The virtual scans are taken along the scan path, leaving the beginning and the end out. The higher the number of virtual scans, the closer the distance.
  3. Enter a base name for the virtual scans and decide whether to use scan points from one scan, or all scans in the project.
  4. Click OK to start the creation of the virtual scans. A folder named "VirtualScans" will be created containing the newly created virtual scans.

Method 2 (Freestyle 2 and Swift)

  1. From the Explore tab, click on the Create Virtual Scans button.
  2. Enter a name for the virtual scans and click OK to start the creation of the virtual scan. A folder named "VirtualScans" will be created containing the newly created virtual scan.
  3. Repeat the above steps to create additional virtual scans.

Viewing and Export

After the virtual scans are creating using one of the methods above, you can continue with the usual Export to SCENE 2go or Scene WebShare Cloud process.
