XYZ to Floor

XYZ to Floor

Win64, English

ADB3D
XYZ to Floor takes point data from CSV files and creates structural floor elements that accurately map to point cloud images.

General Usage Instructions

To use this app, insert your pointcloud (rcs or rcp) to Autodesk® Revit® as "Auto Origin to Origin" via the existing Revit Insert Tab if required.

Prepare your floor scan point data into a CSV file in the numerical format of (E-value), (N-value), (Z-value). Find XYZ to Floor on the add-ins tab and click the button to load CSV into XYZ to Floor and it will create a new structural floor that accurately matches your point cloud image. Slab boundaries will need some manual adjustment.

To transform your XYZ data into a Floor element within Revit, we recommend to use up to 1000 points from a CSV file to keep your workflow quick and reliable.
 
This tool currently uses project coordinates for floor data. A future revision will cater for use of shared coordinate transformation.
Ensure that pointcloud images are inserted origin to origin for floors to match scan data.

Data can be collected from 3D laser scanning, GPS, or a total station.

Support Information

The app should check CSV and report any format errors that may cause the app to crash - please report crashes to support so we can fix it. Inbuilt error checking does not check for inaccuracies of original scan data or any offsets from the original point cloud scan image. Some slabs may take 5-6 minutes to process depending on the number of points used.
