LP360 2017.1 Release Notes

 

New Features

• New Contour Smoothing Algorithm

The new and improved contour smoothing algorithm removes noisy data which causes contour jaggedness by interpolating the Z elevation around contour levels, thereby smoothing the surface and creating much better contours. This display works for both the Map View and 3D view when the user has turned on this setting via the usual Smooth Contours button  on the LP360 Toolbar or Contour Settings in the Export Wizard.

Non-smoothed Contours:

Smooth Contours with less jagged areas as a result of the new smoothing algorithm:

• Suppressing Breakline Points

Users can now suppress point breakline features (ex. mass point, point constraints) when in smooth contour mode. It is located in the Contour Smoothing section of the Contour Properties page of the Layer Properties and Export Wizard dialogs. This feature can be particularly useful when there is very little point data left in an area after cleaning out unwanted points (such as heavily vegetated areas). Contours can become broken due to "rogue" breakline points in the contour smoothing band pulling tin triangles in its direction. That is, any Breakline (constraint) point with a Z within the contour smoothing band (smoothing distance) is "smoothed" out.

Example of broken contours due to sparse TIN data (breakline points in cyan):

After smoothing the breakline points out of the contour smoothing bands (points still shown):

 

• Revamped and simplified method of adding data to LP360.

Users can now add LAS/Raster/Feature data via one simple button on the LP360 Toolbar.

• Clicking this button brings up the Add Files dialog where there is a tabular selection method for adding data. A new Feature tab has been added to allow users add shapefiles from this dialog. In addition, the currently selected tab (data type) is pronounced for easier viewing. Note that an "undefined" Project SRS will be automatically set by the Add Files dialog when only LAS, Raster or Feature layer is added . If all three types are added at the same time, the priority used to set the Project SRS is: 1. LAS 2. Raster 3. Feature.

 

• Performance Improvements to 3D Zoom

There have been some changes to the 3D Display Properties -> 3D View tab to improve performance to 3D zooming. The two zooming methods are:

1. Allowing the user to set the Zoom Rate to a value between 0.05 and 0.25. This is the traditional LP360 fixed rate zoom. However, the user is now able to change the rate of the zoom which controls the distance the eye point moves per zoom update. The zoom will always move with the same fixed percentage value (5% to 25%) offset the Z axis.

2. Automatic Rate Adjustment. This allows the rate to change more fluidly based on the user's mouse movement data. Small mouse movement means a small zoom rate, and vice versa. It is toggled on and off with a checkbox and does not use the Zoom Slider setting above.

• Schema Editor shortcut

There is a Schema Editor shortcut button included on the Feature Edit Toolbar.

 

• Reproject/Shift LAS Point Cloud Task

This new Point Cloud Task supports LAS Shift/Reproject operations to a new output file. It supports reproject as well as all of the various options which can be seen in the dialog. These include converting the SRS to one defined by clicking '...' and a Shift/Scale option which allows the user to apply X, Y, Z shifting or scaling to a LAS layer. A new LAS layer with the newly shifted or scaled points will then be added to the TOC upon completion.

• Show Feature Analyst Shortcut

Here, a user may now conveniently launch Attribute Editor to edit attributes, as well as feature vertices, from the LP360 Feature Edit Toolbar using this new shortcut.

 

• Files tab for viewing existing feature files

Users can now find the file location of feature files via a new 'Files' tab on the Feature Layer Properties dialog.

 

• Option to 'Export by File' in Export Wizard

Users now have the option to 'Export by File' in the Export Wizard. It is found on the Export Extent drop-down menu on page two of the Export Wizard dialog. Due to the new USGS requirements for converting point data to LAS 1.4, this is a very useful and important new feature when exporting point products by file.

 

 

• New and Improved GUI Style

As LP360 no longer supports Windows XP, Windows styles have been moved to support Windows Vista and above. This improves GUI appearance and clarity and could lead to performance improvements as well. The new GUI buttons and styles are sharper and less flat than the old style.

• Old Style:

      

• New Style:

      

 

• Graphics Card AutoSelect

Now, high-end graphics cards are able to be automatically selected by LP360 for use on nVidia® and AMD® notebooks with both integrated and discrete graphics cards. The default system setting is usually for this graphics auto-select feature to be enabled, however, if the user has set the application to specifically use an integrated graphics card, then the auto-select capability is not used and the card selection made by the user is honored.

 

• Define Map Spatial Reference System (SRS) in Project Settings

In project settings, the user can set the Map SRS to be the SRS defined in the Project Spatial Reference System box, or use the SRS of the active LAS layer. This allows the map or WMS backdrop to reproject based on the option chosen.

 

• View File Footprints and Selections while Zooming/Panning in the Map View

The user now has the ability to still see file footprints and highlighted selections while zooming and panning about the Map View. Before, the footprints and selections disappeared, only to reappear upon finishing zooming and panning actions.

 

• Special Marker Point Symbols Display in True 3D

Users select point marker types in the Symbol and Labels Property Pages for feature data. To this point, only the default symbol was rendered in proper 3D. Now, special shapes are drawn in proper 3D as well, and they do not "float" above the surface as the user rotates the 3D window. Instead, the symbols stay connected to the surface model in their proper place.

 

• 'Input Datasets' Group Added to Point Cloud Task Dialogs

Certain point cloud task dialogs (ones that take geometries and LAS layers as input) now allow the user to explicitly define the input geometries (polygon or shapefile) and LAS layers that will be used to execute the tasks.

 

• Grid Generator Point Cloud Task

A new Point Cloud Task called Grid Generator has been added, allowing the user to impose a cell grid over an input geometry and/or LAS layer based on input parameters and output the result to a shapefile.

• Feature Edit Toolbar
  The Feature Edit Toolbar in LP360 for sUAS now offers a group of tools that allows you to create, delete, move, and edit features at the individual vertex level. The toolbar allows the user to do directly begin a feature edit session in the Map and Profile views. Vertices can be edited in both the map window (for planimetric editing) and in the profile window (for vertical editing). The Feature Edit tools integrate seamlessly with the Point Cloud Task (PCT) Z conflation tools, allowing for automatic assignment and adjustment of the Z value of individual vertices, groups of vertices, or entire features.
  
  These include a host of new capabilities and commands for: Selecting Feature Layers, Saving Feature Edits, Discarding Feature Edits, Creating Feature Layers, Creating Features from other Feature Geometries, Selecting/Editing Features, Moving Features, Selecting/Editing Vertices, Adding Vertices, Deleting Vertices, Reshaping Geometry, Splitting Geometry, Simplifying Geometry, Respacing Geometry, Reversing Geometry, Showing the Vertex Properties Dialog, Auto-Z Mode Palette, Showing the Feature Edit Options Dialog, Feature Analyst Dialog (View/Edit Attributes), Schema Editor, Undo/Redoing Feature Edits, and Deleting Features. Please see the Feature Edit Toolbar help topic for more information on these tools.
  
  

• Feature Analyst Dialog

An exciting and powerful aspect of the new Feature Edit toolbar is Feature Analyst. The Feature Analyst Dialog button allows users to view/edit the attributes of features, parts and tabs on the current layer. Feature Analyst links feature analysis directly to editing features, so that any errors found in the user's data may be immediately corrected with the editing tools. The user simply double-clicks the appropriate feature's cell he wishes to change on the Features, Parts, or Vertices tabs. The user can sort on a particular column by clicking it. If a user selects a row (or rows) on a particular tab, then that row's corresponding features, parts, or vertices (whichever may apply) will be auto-selected in the other tabs and also in the Map View. So, there is total synchronization between the Map View and each of the tabs on the Feature Analyst Dialog. Feature Analyst also synchronizes based on Auto-Z and shift geometry right-click commands accordingly. The user can also create, save, and load analysis tests in Feature Analyst Options and see the Pass/Fail results of those tests in the Feature Analyst main dialog via added columns to each for each type of test.

• Analysis Testing

The user can also create, save, and load analysis tests in Feature Analyst Options and see the Pass/Fail results of those tests in the Feature Analyst main dialog via added columns to each for each type of test.

• Support for Web Mapping (Tile) Services (WMS/WMTS)

New support has been added for WMS/WMTS services (e.g. Image backdrops) in LP360. There are several pre-populated in the 'Add WMS Layer'  Dialog, including the Reckon WMS server. These backdrop layers are reprojected on the fly to the appropriate Spatial Reference System (SRS) as the active LAS layer is switched to a layer containing a different SRS.

• Copy Feature Layers
  In LP360 for sUAS, you may easily copy features and their attributes using the Copy Feature Layer dialog.
  
  
  
  Options to append to an existing shapefile, copy attributes, and add to the map window are available in the dialog, as well as a text box for naming the copy layer.
  
  

• Merge Feature Layers Dialog
  In LP360 for sUAS, you may combine multiple shape layers into one shapefile by using the Merge Feature Layers dialog.
  
  
  
  Options to append to an existing shapefile, copy attributes, and add to the map window are available on this dialog, as well as a text box for naming the merged layer.
  
  

• Select Features
  In LP360 for sUAS, one or more features may now be selected for editing within the map view. A feature must be selected before a feature level edit (move, delete, Auto Z, Interactive Z, etc.) can be applied. You can choose among a lasso tool, a drag select tool, or a digitize polygon tool for selecting features. Single clicking the edge of a feature works with all three tools.
  
  

• Feature Edit Options Dialog
  In the Feature Edit Options dialog in LP360 for sUAS, you may alter parameters affecting feature symbology, confirmation dialogs, Auto Z settings, and geometry settings.

• Symbology – Configures the symbology for the various Feature Edit display modes.

• Confirm – Enables / disables confirmation dialogs for certain feature edit operations. 

• Auto Z – Configures the methods for automatically assigning Z values to the vertices of features.

• Geometry – Configures processing parameters for tools such as Simplify Geometry and Respace Geometry.

• EXP - Setting an Outline Contour allows just a single contour at a specific elevation value to be created. Create Feature from Identified Feature allows the user to Identify a feature and create a feature from that feature on the selected destination layer.

 

• Transparency
  The Transparency dialog allows you to change the transparency level of a selected layer from between 0% (no transparency) and 100% (invisible) by dragging the slider in the slider control to the left or right to decrease or increase transparency respectively. Alternatively, you can enter an integer value between 0 and 100 into the text box to the right of the slider area to set an exact percentage of transparency.
  
  
  
  

• Classify Non-visible Points
  The Classification Toolbar Edit button has been repurposed to Classify non-visible points when pressed. With LP360 2016.1, the user can choose to classify points using the Classify Non-Visible Points command. This allows users to either classify OR not classify points turned off in the display filter. This also includes the Profile View.

• Point Classification at less than 100% resolution In addition, the 2D Map View now allows classification at less than 100% point resolution. This capability allows the user to edit point classifications without needing to load an entire point cloud.                                                                                                   
  
  

• Classification Selection Displayed Across Views
  Now when classifying points with the classification tools on the Classify toolbar, selected points will display on the 2D map view, 3D, and profile views. Selected points are updated simultaneously on all three views. This allows the user to have a sense of context when they are selecting points in a data set.
  
  

• Classify by Statistics Point Cloud Task
  The new Classify by Statistics point cloud task allows for the classification of points based on the statistical analysis of a gridded area of interest. If you wish, you may produce a shapefile of your grid during the process of this point cloud task.
  
  Statistics supported by this point cloud task at this time include: Low Point, High Point, Median Point, and Random Points.
  
  This task is primarily useful for thinning points based on these statistics.
  
  

• Create Feature Layers
  In LP360 for sUAS, you may now create feature layers, give them a geometry type, and set their coordinate systems using the new Create Feature Layers dialog. Geometry types include 2D points, lines, and polygons as well as 3D points, lines, and polygons. Once created, you may use the new Create Feature command on the Feature Edit toolbar to add features to your new feature layers.
  
  

• Re-Path Projects
  The user can set a default data path for your current project by setting a project path. If you wish to change the path of a project you have been working on, you can use the new Re-Path Project dialog to find all instances of the specified path and replace it with a new one. When the program is finished, the project will be re-opened and a project backup file (*_backup.xml) will be created in the same folder as the original path.
  
  

• Coordinate System Property Page
  A user may can check and alter the coordinate reference system (CRS) of a layer through its property page. In the property page's "CRS" tab, you can open the Select Coordinate System dialog, where you can set or change a layer's coordinate system and datum.
  

• Breakline Enforcement Button Shortcut
  There is a new button shortcut to enforce breaklines in the Map, Profile, and 3D views with one click. In addition, the user can immediately access the Breakline settings dialog by holding down the Ctrl key when clicking this button.

LP360 Main Toolbar:

3D Viewer:

Profile View:

 

Modifications to Existing Features

• Changed the GUI in LAS Layer Properties (Contours) tab to reflect new Smooth Contour method by changing "Vertex Spacing" to "Smoothing Distance".

• Users now have the option to bring up the Display Properties dialog with the Breakline Enforcement tab already selected via a "Ctrl+click" on the Use Breakline Enforcement button on the LP360 Main Toolbar.

• Upon right-clicking a Feature Layer in the table of contents and clicking Delete Files, "missing" files are no longer shown (only existing ones).

• Improved performance by turning off the spinning globe animation on the status bar, due to it being an unnecessary use of CPU resources.

• Set the License Level to Advanced for the Stockpile (Toe) Extractor Point Cloud Task.

• Modified 'Auto Compute Z' such that, when Auto Z is turned on with a conflation method selected, anytime a geometry is modified the conflation method is executed on that geometry. For instance, if the geometry is moved, the method recalculates Z values for each vertex.

• Modified 'Auto Compute Z' such that, when Auto Z is turned on with a conflation method selected and a set of vertices are modified, the conflation is executed only on those selected vertices. The unselected vertices remain the same.

• The Run by Feature layer will default to the layer that has selected features when possible.

• The setting of profile graticules has been enabled for the viewer license.

• The contour string building algorithm has been improved such that the display performance of contours based on Model Key Points and TINs is much better.

• Multi-Select “Use” toggle capability has been added to the Control Points Report dialog. Also, all combinations have been added to the Quick Set box.

• The ability to set the path of a Feature Layer has been implemented as a right-click Table of Contents command.

• The project area has been added to the Project Settings dialog with selectable units open.

• On the Control Points Report dialog, the default selection order for a unique name attribute has been changed to the following order: 1. “Name,” 2. “ID,” and 3. “FID.”

• Increased the performance of LP360 for Windows in drawing shapefiles with thousands of polygons.

• In LP360 for Windows, renaming a feature layer in the Table of Contents automatically renames its associated SHP/DBF/PRJ/SHX/SBN/SBX files to match it.

• Added the Layer Name to the vertex totals for the selected feature(s) shown in the status bar readout.

• Improved 3D marker point symbols display feature to be scaled by the pixel size instead of the map unit size. This results in a more consistent and accurate viewing experience while rotating around the 3D View.

• Removed the Auto Z Modes and "Set Constant Z Value" items from the Feature Edit right-click menu. Auto Z modes are now toggled on the Feature Edit Toolbar and the Constant Z value is set in the Feature Edit Options dialog.

• Removed Z-Aware from the Classify by Features PCT. All 2D geometries are now treated as 3D and the spatial relationship will adapt on-the-fly to the type of geometry being processed.

• Removed artificial TIN node points when using breaklines. They looked like LAS points when displayed and are identified as such by the Identify tool, but actually are not which could be confusing when classifying.

• When saving or discarding an edit session, the chosen feature layer still remains selected in the Feature Layer dropdown box on the Feature Edit toolbar.

• Removed from the applicable PCTs the ability to execute on 'Selected Features' only.

• Removed the Attribute Editor from the Table of Contents right-click menu. This is replaced by the editor on the Feature Analyst Dialog.

• Made the Select and Identify tools work for shapefiles with mutipart geometries. Now all the separate parts of the geometry are accounted for in the shapefile.

• Improved performance by preventing raster images from being resampled to a size much larger than the device window size.

• Increased point size in the Map and Profile views to improve visibility when digitizing breaklines or elevation points in the Ground Cleanup PCT.

• Added an "Enable M-Values" checkbox on the Create Feature Layer dialog that, when checked, results in the creation of an M-Value supported SHP file.

• Added a "Grow/Shrink Size" to the Toe Extractor PCT, which draws the toe smaller or larger depending on the input value.

• The Downstream Constraint conflation option on the Conflation PCT is now fully supported in LP360 standalone.

• Made the default display background slightly darker for improved visibility when digitizing with the rubber band ad drawing temporary graphics.

• Changed the WKT under the TOC 'Map' Properties right-click menu to be more readable, instead of one long line of text.

• Added a 'Cancel' button to the Save Project dialog when exiting LP360 standalone. This allows the user to keep the application open if desired.

• Implemented in standalone LP360 the ability to quit drawing on a layer in all views by pressing Esc.

• In the Profile Window, changed keyboard shortcut for continuous zoom to Ctrl+D.

• Added a 'Pyramid Raster Files' command to the right-click TOC Raster Files pane.

• The Create Feature Layer dialog will create an associated PRJ file when the user selects a coordinate system.

• An undefined Project SRS will be automatically set by the Add Files dialog when only LAS, Raster, or Feature data is added. If all three times are simultaneously added, the priority of setting the SRS is: LAS, Raster, Feature.

• Improved LDExport to be able to export all export formats/types shown in the GUI after a license check.

• In LP360 for ArcGIS, change the airplane symbol for 3D viewing angle in the Map View to an arrow symbol.

• Made performance improvements in the layer display update mechanism as it was making unnecessary updates when the layer was not physically contained in the map display.

• Made a change so that the existing profile or 3D point cache is cleared and memory is freed when drawing a new 3D or Profile extent box.

Defect Fixes

• Fixed an issue where performance was poor on TIN Display in the 2D Map View due to contours always being built at startup even though they were turned off. (5614)

• Fixed an issue where all points being filtered out in the 2D Map TIN View caused the application to crash. (5621)

• Fixed an issue where failing to explicitly specify the .shp extension when creating a QA/QC shapefile prodcued an invalid file path (COM Exception) when saving the project. (5629)

• Fixed an issue where the User Specified Interval not being selected in Las Layer Properties -> Contours led to TIN contours being smoothed at wrong intervals. Now, the contour interval to smooth the TIN is automatically the same as the interval used to generate contours if the User Specified Interval is unselected. (5635)

• Added the missing 2013 Canadian Geodetic Vertical Datum to the Coordinate System dialog. (5643)

• Fixed an issue where LP360 for ArcMap was crashing without any warning or notice to the user during retrieval of Mass Point Breaklines. (5655)

• Fixed an issue where contour annotation underlines chosen on the Contour Properties page were not being displayed in the Map View. (4076)

• Feature Edit toolbar functions are now disabled unless the required license level is present. (5664)

• Fixed an issue where the classification selection was visible in the 3D window initially, however after that it only shows up if the user rotates/moves the display. Once the display is "still" again, the classification selection no longer shows. (5653)

• Fixed an issue where some remnants of the previous project were still present in view boxes (Map, 3D, and Profile) when changing projects via the File menu. Code was added to check for existing documents and clear the views. (5590)

• Fixed an issue where when browsing to the 'Set Selected Vertices Z To' dialog by right clicking a vertex in the Profile View, the X and Y fields were not active, only Z was active. (5669)

• Fixed an issue where Create Points from Selected Features was not applying Auto Z values to created points (automatically assigning Z values to features based on Auto Z settings). (5662)

• Fixed an issue where there was a crash when bringing in a 3D Polygon shapefile and running the Planar Statistics PCT. 3D boundaries are now converted to 2D in order to compute statistics. (5681)

• Fixed an issue where the Height Filter PCT was crashing when setting class flags on the source point filter. (5690)

• Fixed an issue where changing the active LAS layer to another layer with a known coordinate system did not update the units combo box in the status bar as it should. (5682)

• Fixed an issue in which the "save" and "load" buttons shown on the "DZ" tab under the Symbology tab on the Active LAS Layer Properties dialog were "hidden" in the English version of LP360 for Windows. (2200)

• Fixed an issue in which the cursor would disappear while digitizing using the conflation point cloud task on a TIN with points whose symbology were gray. (2209)

• The default color for the "High Noise" classification has been changed from black to purple to increase visibility. (2222)

• Fixed an issue where the statistics extractor PCT was allowing the user to run it without having a .SHP file extension on the output file and gives a warning. The PCT now appends the file extension. (2720)

• Fixed a bug where LP360 was crashing when loading a LAS file that required a large .qvr (pyramiding) file to be generated. (2983)

• Fixed an issue in which creating new macro tasks would make the properties pane display dysfunction, showing a blank task list in the upper section but displaying the bottom section of whatever the previous active point cloud task was before creating the macro.
