Top 7 Features of FJD Trion Model - Your Go-to Tool for Point Cloud Processing

Point cloud data has become an important tool for professionals in industries such as surveying, construction, mining, and infrastructure management. It provides a wealth of information that can be used to make informed decisions. However, processing this data can be a daunting task, especially when working with large amounts, sometimes from multiple sources. That's where FJD Trion Model comes in. This software solution is designed to seamlessly process point cloud data from a variety of hardware, reducing processing time, and improving data quality. In this blog post, we will do a deep dive of the features that make FJD Trion Model the ultimate point cloud processing solution.

Multiple data sources supported

With the increasing prevalence of LiDAR technology, capturing point cloud data can be done in various ways. Whether you opt for a drone-mounted LiDAR, handheld scanner, or terrestrial scanner, leveraging point cloud data effectively requires appropriate post-processing in the office. Trion Model offers compatibility with commonly used point cloud data formats such as .las, .ply, .pts, and .e57. This allows you to efficiently process any field LiDAR data and obtain the desired outcomes quickly.

Next, we'll take a closer look at key features of the Trion Model software.

Data Processing Overview

Point Cloud Rectification

Accuracy is key when it comes to point cloud data. However, sometimes the data collected can be tilted, leading to inaccuracies in measurements. Rectify the point cloud data automatically when you import data into Trion Model, correcting any tilt in the Z-axis direction. This improves the quality of the data and enhances accuracy, as the data can be correctly aligned to the intended reference system.

Point Cloud Registration

Multiple scans of a location can sometimes result in data that are in different coordinate systems. With FJD Trion Model's point cloud registration feature, data from multiple scans of the same location can be matched accurately into the same coordinate system. Trion Model uses Iterative closest point (ICP) algorithms to calculate precise points and speed up calculations. This not only reduces errors in manual point selection but also improves the accuracy of dataset stitching.

Profile Analysis

Quickly evaluate point cloud data quality by taking a slice of the 3D point cloud data can be converted into a 2D view for further analysis. Such as point cloud layering, thickness and other quality assessment; object surface abnormality detection; object shape, size, and feature extraction.

Industry Applications

In addition to basic functions, Trion Model also comes with modules designed for Construction, Mining, and Forestry.

Automatic classification 

Automatically classify indoor and outdoor point cloud data into different categories such as ground, trees, ceilings, walls, floors, etc., to extract key features and information in the scene for targeted analysis.

 

Volume Calculation

Calculate volume with a few simple clicks. Generate reports for various scenarios such as filling and excavation, stockpiles, mine tunnels, mine roads, and karst caves.

2D Graphics Drawing

Automatically extract the plane contour lines in one click, or manually draw the vector line based on the section to complete the reconstruction of the 2D drawing. This is especially helpful in building facade measurement, interior design, historical building protection and more.

Forestry Survey

The forestry module enables you to extract ground points and vegetation in the forest model and separate the vegetation part, automatically extract the parameters such as tree position, height, crown width, and breast diameter, etc., Generate and export single tree data reports for forestry investigation, management and planning.

Project implementation

• Fieldwork: Used airborne LiDAR equipment/handheld laser scanner/static scanner to scan the stockpile to obtain on-site 3D point cloud data.
• Office: Achieved high accuracy and efficiency in volume calculation by importing data into FJD Trion Model. Utilized the point cloud segmentation function to isolate the relevant pile area and accurately measure its volume. Generated a comprehensive report for easy reference. FJD Trion Model greatly enhanced precision and saved time in the calculation process.

Forestry Survey

Project requirements
Obtain forestry point cloud data through on-site measurement, and generate a report on single tree DBH, tree height and crown width.

Project implementation

• Fieldwork: Used airborne LiDAR equipment / handheld laser scanner/static scanner to scan the forest to obtain on-site 3D point cloud data.
• Office: FJD Trion Model efficiently integrated information collected from various platforms on site using point cloud registration and merging functions. By applying the forestry data extraction module, the team was able to classify forest point cloud data and separate ground points. This allowed the operator to automatically segment individual trees and extract essential data such as tree height, diameter at breast height, crown width, and tree species. Furthermore, the team conducted additional calculations to determine carbon storage in forest areas. These advancements have greatly reduced measurement cycles, labor intensity, costs, and environmental impact, while significantly improving overall efficiency.

Underground Mine

Project Requirements
Obtain the complete point cloud data of the underground mine through on-site measurement, and calculate the enclosed volume of a mine tunnel.

Project Implementation
