STONEX SURVEYING SYSTEMS
Cube-3d Software
Photogrammetry & 3D data software
Cube-3d is a complete software for 3D data management, built by two modules for photogrammetry and for scanner data. The former processes images (or videos) to generate accurate digital maps and 3D models with extreme precision; the latter provides tools to align point clouds.
It is compatible with cube-a surveys and with any third-party 3D model. It is possible to draw on point clouds or meshes and merge data imported from traditional survey tools, all in a single software. The data can be then processed and enhanced thanks to the various CAD tools.
Among the many features available, most appreciated are the automatic classification, orthophoto, cross-sections and profile lines, volume calculation, and more. Licenses configuration is very flexible, from perpetual to temporary subscription, it adapts to the needs of many professionals.
Import and Data Processing
3D POINT & DIGITAL SURFACE GENERATOR
Cube-3d is a complete software for 3D data management, built by two modules for photogrammetry and for scanner data. The former processes images (or videos) to generate accurate digital maps and 3D models with extreme precision; the latter provides tools to align point clouds. It is compatible with cube-a surveys and with any third-party 3D model.
WIDE RANGE OF IMPORT OPTIONS
Without selecting a reference system or entering details on the formats used, Cube-3d can receive data directly from Cube-a, with the settings defined in the latter, and use them, for example, as a control point for georeferencing the models.
It is possible to import point clouds from lidar, laser scanners, and without limitation from any tool capable of generating them. The compatibility of this software with all standard formats, used in traditional surveys, will be of great help to professionals.
NEVER-FAILING ORIENTATION
Cube-3d automatically detects both GCPs and detail points, allowing the operator to check the position of the detected targets, in the first step of the orientation.
With Stonex targets, the time needed will be even shorter, centering is immediate. Even working with RTK drones, it will be easy to achieve centimeter accuracy without GCP.
Modules
PHOTOGRAMMETRY MODULE
The program can process, in a single project, images captured by any handy camera, UAV drone, or multiple-camera and create extremely accurate and detailed high-definition 3D models. It can generate a fully geo-referenced, spatially orientated, and complete overview of your site configuration.
SCANNER MODULE
Import clouds from Lidar, Laser Scanners, and without limitation from any tool capable of generating them. Full support for Stonex Scanners and a wide range of import formats. Register point clouds in cube-3d and take advantage of all the excellent tools it provides.
Functionalities

CLASSIFICATION
Benefits from an industry-leading classification engine with best-in-class point cloud customization tools that give users fast, easy-to-use, and simple data classification.

ORTHOPHOTO
It allows to calculate high-resolution, traditional and true, digital orthophotos with cm-grade precision in perfect geo-referenced details.

CROSS SECTIONS, PROFILES AND CONTOUR LINES
From point cloud data, it will draw a definition line and calculate single vertical cross-sections or multiple transverse profiles with user-defined intervals.

CAD ENGINE
Integrated CAD functions give you the power to work on your project with a complete layer system, snapping tools, drawing options and measurements.
