What is Point cloud
1.
Point
s at a virtual space resulting from scans that represent an object surface but only reconstructing the location of benchmarks or targets.
Learn more in: 3D Scanning and Simulation of a Hybrid Refrigerator Using Photovoltaic Energy
2.
A set of three-dimensional distributed
point
s which result from a laser or photogrammetry scan. Each
point cloud
is calculated by matching several photographs (in the case of photogrammetry survey) so as it corresponds to a
point
of the surface of the surveyed object. The density of a
point cloud
is dependent on the quantity and quality of the photos taken, but also on the followed protocol of the shooting.

3.
A set of data
point
s in space, generally produced by 3D scanners and used to represent 3D objects in visualization, animation, rendering and 3D manufacturing applications ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/

8.
Set of vertices or
point
s in a three-dimensional coordinate system. These vertices are usually positioned in 3D space and have a set of coordinates (x, y, z). These sets of
point
s normally are representative of the external surface of an object.
