Large voids when displaying point cloud data in LP360

Problem

User sees large voids when displaying point cloud data in LP360. This usually occurs when combining dense and sparse point cloud datasets or displaying terrestrial scanner points clouds. The reason points don't display properly is that points close to each other spatially are not physically near to one another in the LAS file structure. Here are a few options to help with this display issue:

Probable Resolution #1:

The simplest resolution is to use the "Force 100% Resolution" option in LP360. If you are zoomed out, this could negatively impact performance or cause an overflow in the display (OVF), so use it cautiously. This option usually works better when you are zoomed in to a subset of the project.

Probable Resolution #2:

Use LPLAS pyramids instead of the old QVR pyramids.

Probable Resolution #3:

Use the LDReorder.exe to reorder spatial adjacent points so they are also near one another in the LAS structure. Make sure to pyramid the newly ordered files when adding them to LP360 or use the LDPyramid.exe after performing the reorder task.
