There are three
sets of APIs related to point clouds – |
||
1)Client API is capable of working with point cloud
instances within Revit and help in creating them, manipulating their
properties and reading the points found matching to a given volumetric
filter. |
||
2)The point cloud engine API is capable of supplying points
in a point cloud to Revit. |
||
3)The point cloud indexer API helps convert data from a
custom format to indexed (pcg) format that Revit and other Adsk products can
read. It has a C/C++ API and more details on this API can be located in the
word document found in the SDK folder as specified in the slide. This Indexer
API is not being covered in today’s presentation. |
