Definition

 

Dark Scan Point

It removes points based on a reflectance valuve

It is used to remove scan points with too much noise

Reflectance threshold 200

Distance

It removes all scan points which are outside of a certain distance range

Maximum distance: 30 m

Stray Point

It checks if the 2D grid cell of a scan point contains a sufficient percentage of points with a distance similar to the scan point itself

Grid size: 3px

Distance threshold: 0.02 m

Allocation threshold 50%

Edge Artifact

It is especially useful to remove artefacts at the edges of obejects

Yes

Smooth

It is used to minimize noise on surfaces

No
