Querying Point Cloud Features

Querying a point cloud dataset is similar to querying a raster dataset. There are two ways to select a point cloud.

Click on a point in the point cloud to show the Single Point Information. This includes the x, y, and z coordinates, and other optional properties such as intensity, angle, number of returns, and scan direction.

Note: You must be in 3D view mode to select point cloud points.

Drag the cursor to select an area of a point cloud dataset to show the Point Cloud Properties. This information includes feature type, coordinate system, extents, number of points, attributes, and components.
