Export of Point Clouds
Ribbon: Point Clouds > Point Cloud > 
Export
Menu: Point Clouds > 
Export
Command line: NPC_EXPORT
This command exports point cloud to different formats: LAS (1.2 and 1.4 versions), BIN, PTS, XYZ, PLY, E57, RCS. File formats are described in more detail in the Point Cloud Data Formats section.
1. The following dialog appears if point cloud has meta data. Select attributes to export in a file. If all checkboxes are turned off, then only point coordinates are exported without attributes.
2. Then specify file format, file name and path.
NOTE: Extension of XYZ file depends on selected attributes: *.xyzciedlastrgb , - for all selected attributes, *.xyz. – without selected attributes.
If the cloud was clipped with one of clip or section commands, then only visible points are exported.
NOTE: Since a clip (or a section) creates for a certain view, then it is very important what model space view is current at the moment of the Export command launching.
If the point cloud has the Class attribute, then only points from visible, unfrozen, unblocked layers will be exported.
