Georeferenced point-cloud models

Cesium ion
1

Hello,

I’m using RealityCapture to generated georeferenced models. I’m noting that point-cloud (.las) exports don’t upload to Cesium (via the ‘Share’ functionality) with coordinates. Is there a setting I’m missing for this?

Hi,

Can you please share the asset id with me for the export that you are seeing this behavior for?

Thanks,

Sure thing, try: 2564386
Another one, just in case: 2561663
And, for the above, 2561663, this is the corresponding poly (which uploaded with embedded georef, as expected: 2561548

Hi,

So looks like the point cloud assets have a sidecar file with the .rcinfo extension that contains the geolocation information. Our tiler doesn’t currently read these sidecar files

You should be able to export the model from RealityCapture with the geolocation information baked into the tileset

Thanks,
