Downsized Volume Pointcloud Format

Modified on Fri, 30 Dec, 2022 at 1:54 PM


To reduce the storage of a point cloud file, a new compression is introduced. The file extension has not been changed (.PPCH with corresponding folder) however  the compression method did. Together with some other memory tools this resulted in a reduction of the memory usage, in some cases up to 50%.  

Pointcloud files from earlier versions are still compatible with Pythagoras 2023.
