[B] Managing point clouds with scan areas
Point clouds may be divided into several areaswhich may even be
colored uniquely to helpidentiying them.
[C] Use orthophotos rom the FARO HeritagePackage
Importing orthophotos rom FAROs Heritage Pa-ckage allows you to
digitize on a scaled 2D imagewhich still carries the depth
inormation.

[D] Use the AutoCAD object snap eaturesEach scan point is a
snapable object to AutoCAD.This helps you to draw as-built as easy
as ne-ver beore.
