3DAnalysen
3DAnalysen is the systematic examination of three-dimensional data to characterize geometry, topology, and spatial relationships of objects and scenes. The field covers the acquisition, processing, analysis, and interpretation of 3D information across disciplines such as engineering, geoscience, medicine, and cultural heritage.
Common data sources include 3D scans from laser or structured-light devices, stereo photogrammetry, LiDAR, computed tomography
Applications span manufacturing quality control, reverse engineering, architecture and construction, archaeology and cultural heritage preservation, geospatial
Tools and standards: software and libraries commonly used for 3D analyses include Open3D, the Point Cloud Library
Challenges and trends: the field contends with large data volumes, noise, incomplete data, occlusions, and the
