CloudWorx for Bentley

Point cloud plug-in for Bentley

Leica CloudWorx for Bentley is the most efficient and popular plug-in software for using as-built point cloud data – captured by laser scanners – directly within Bentley MicroStation, AECOsim Building Designer and OpenBuildings Designer.

Users take advantage of the familiar Bentley interface and tools to shorten the learning curve for working with laser scan data. Leica CloudWorx and the powerful Leica Cyclone and new Leica JetStream point cloud engines let Bentley users efficiently visualise and process large point cloud data sets. Users can create accurate 2D and 3D as-builts, check proposed designs against existing conditions, and perform critical construction & fabrication QA, and more… all directly within Bentley.

In the past, users often struggled with point cloud manipulation when using Bentley point cloud plug-ins. CloudWorx overcomes this with its powerful TruSpace viewing window. This intuitive, panoramic viewing window lets users “see” better what the point cloud represents, and acts like a super-control to drive point clouds visualisation in Bentley with unprecedented speed.
