Image Overlays

How to change the display view through the image overlay options

Overview

At the top of the Trajectory View menu are all the available tools to interact with the imagery. They are referred to as Image Overlays

Lidar View

The Lidar View will bring a user back to the normal perspective or plan view of the point cloud. This is the default view seen when opening Digital Surveyor’s Viewer.

Layer View

This view forces the display to the perspective of the system’s camera along the trajectory. The lidar point cloud will be overlayed on top of it. A user can progress up and down the trajectory viewing the images in this view via the other buttons in the Trajectory View tool bar.

All lines and objects are able to be fully interacted with in this view, making it great for any additional editing or QA/QC workflows.

Image View

Similar to the Layer View, the display is set to the perspective of the system’s camera along the trajectory. However, the point cloud and features are not overlayed on the imagery. This makes it strictly for image viewing.
