Color Sources for Point Cloud Visualization
Different color sources offer unique benefits for emphasizing various site characteristics. NUBIGON provides options including point color, object color, intensity, and elevation, each enhancing visualization and delivering deeper insights into your data.
Point Color
This historic Turkish Bath is rendered in NUBIGON using point colors, creating a photorealistic representation highlighting its architectural details and craftsmanship. The result is an accurate, visually rich point cloud visualization ideal for virtual exploration and presentation.

Object Color
Excelsior Measuring utilizes object color to highlight surface details in their pipeworks scan. With NUBIGON, you can assign custom colors to differentiate point clouds, even when multiple datasets are displayed in the same scene, ensuring clarity and focus on key elements.

Intensity Color
Intensity values are vital data points captured by laser scanners. Excelsior Measuring uses intensity in both surface and X-ray modes within NUBIGON to emphasize the surface characteristics of steel structures, adding more insight to the point cloud’s visual representation.

Elevation in Geospatial
Elevation coloring is essential for visualizing geospatial data. UOIG Vidmar uses X-ray display with elevation colors for their aerial scan of a Croatian city, providing detailed insights into elevation-based features. This technique also excels in silhouette mode and when combined with topographic models.

Elevation in Buildings
Elevation coloring is invaluable for visualizing building assets. Leap3D employs NUBIGON’s elevation color scale to present their scan of Muntsluis in Amsterdam. This makes it easy to differentiate site elements based on elevation, enhancing the viewer’s understanding of the scan site.

Custom Elevation
NUBIGON also allows custom elevation coloring along major axes. In this video, elevation is applied across the length of the Natural History Museum, London collected by Platinum 3D Consultants. This approach offers new perspectives and valuable insights into the structure’s dimensions.
