You can directly export 3D Scan data such as 3D point clouds for Scan to BIM or 3D textured meshes for visualization and rendering, or and you can also download the CPC format which can be opened with the VistaPoint Viewer.
3D Export Formats
Export these files from CupixVista for direct import into downstream applications such as Scan to BIM.
| 3D Format | Notes |
| e57 (*.e57) | Point Cloud Format. Option to export with 360 Panos* |
| PLY (*.ply) | Point Cloud Format. |
| XYZ (*.xyz) | Point Cloud Format. |
| GLB (*.glb) | Textured Mesh Format |
| OBJ (*.obj) | Textured Mesh Format |
*Note: Exporting an e57 file "with 360 Panos" will result in a larger file. Make sure your downstream application can support "360 panos" before choosing this option.
CPC Download Option
The CPC format is Cupix’s proprietary file type for 3D map visualization. Users can explore colored point clouds or heatmaps, open panoramic views, measure dimensions, filter scenes, and export data in PLY, XYZ, or JPEG formats. The CPC Download is available from the Project Center. Click "Download" and choose CPC.
| CPC (*.cpc) | Compressed "Cupix Point Cloud" Format is available for download from the Project Center. You can Open CPC files in VistaPoint Viewer |
Export 3D Point Cloud or 3D Mesh
Download 3D Point Cloud and 3D Mesh files.
- Open your CupixVista Capture
- Press the Export Button and Choose e57 or PLY for Point Cloud, or GLB and OBJ for 3D Mesh.
- Save the 3D file from CupixVista. You may end up with multiple files if the capture is large.
3D Point Cloud Export
3D Point Cloud Files downloaded from CupixVista are available for use in Scan to BIM.
3D Mesh Export
3D Mesh files available for use in downstream software such as Blender, Maya, 3D Studio or After Effects.
Download CPC File for use in VistaPoint
CupixVista's CPC File is a highly compressed 3d model containing both the point cloud and the mesh and it can be opened up in VistaPoint, a free software from Cupix which offers measurement and visualization tools similar to SiteView without having to be online. You can use the CPC as an offline-archive or offline-deliverable that is disconnected from the cloud.
Download the CPC File
The CPC Download is available from the Project Center. Click "Download" and choose CPC.
Open CPC File in VistaPoint
Open the CPC File in VistaPoint which is free software providing measurement, visualization and even e57 and GLB export, similar to SiteView without having to be online.
