How to generate colored 3D model from colored LiDAR point cloud?

[Aarvee]

We are able to generate uncolored 3D model from point cloud, but aren't able to generate colored 3D model, so please help us in doing so.

My question is how to extract colors from raw point cloud to generate a colored 3D model?

I guess you'll have to be more specific

as since you are able to generate uncolored 3D model from pointcloud and if your point cloud contains color information then you should be able to then transfer color from point cloud to generated geo using AttribTransfer or VEX

 

if however your main problem is to get the color from your pointcloud data which you are reading from an external file, then it would help to know what file type you are trying to read etc.

Lidar Import SOP can read color data, however it has to be encoded in the file

Thank you for your reply, the file type we are using is .LAS and please can you elaborate and show the process as we are new to the software.

 To be more specific we are trying to generate a colored 3D model from a colored LiDAR point cloud  (.las) and now as you said we are able to get an uncolored 3D model from colored point cloud but we aren't able to extract the colors from the colored point cloud.

So, basically what we need is to extract the colors from colored point cloud to generate a colored 3D model. 

Here you can find attached .hipnc and .las files. 

Kindly please help us.

here is an example of Attrib Transfer mentioned earlier
