- Description
- PTS is a plain-text file format used to store 3D point cloud data captured by laser scanners, typically containing X, Y, Z coordinates along with optional intensity and RGB color values for each point. It is commonly used in surveying, architecture, and engineering workflows to exchange point cloud data between scanning hardware and 3D modeling or CAD software.
- It is a 3D model file format developed by Stanford Computer Graphics Laboratory. PLY is mainly used to describe objects in a collection of polygons.
