QUAD toolbar:
with the Quad Surfaces of SURFACE module it is possible to project on point clouds a quadrangular grid surface with a regular step customizable by the user. The grid is projected according to a work plane defined by the user. The step determines the detail level with which the cloud morphology is approximated. Such surface is an AutoCAD® block reference and can be easily modified by the blocks editor and customized according to the user’s needs. Moreover there are commands to unify different meshes (created with different techniques or according to different work planes) to allow to model also on very complex morphologies.

For instance, in the architectural field it is possible to extend two adjacent Quad Surfaces and  determine the intersecting parts to reconstruct the corners of walls. Moreover, Quad Surfaces can be perforated in correspondence of windows, doors, ornaments or other architectural elements which can be modelled by DRAW or MESH modules. At last all the parts can be unified in a single three-dimensional model.

REGION toolbar:
it is composed of a set of commands to help the user to model point clouds using AutoCAD® Region entities. Region entities allow to create “lighter” models and are ideal to model parts of cloud which are approximately flat. Such as for Quad Surfaces, there are commands to extend and split Regions (suitable to obtain the corners of walls) and to split a region with a Quad Surface, allowing the two types of entities to interact. Moreover, Regions can be converted in sets of triangular 3D Face entities with a specific command of CloudCUBE.
