GeoCue Group is pleased to announce the latest release of LP360. Available both as an add-in to ArcGIS® and as a standalone 64 bit application, LP360 is the world’s most powerful and popular LIDAR extension for the ESRI environment. This release (2015.1.76) includes many feature updates as well as new tools aimed at improving our users’ ability to derive value from point clouds. This is one of the important releases in the history of LP360. We fixed more than 380 issues and added significant new features to LP360 product. 

Feature updates for this release include: updated attribute class flags and filters to ensure robust compliance with the LAS 1.4 specification, new modes and units for volume outputs as well as improved digitizing tools in standalone for creating 3D stockpile toes. 

Significant new features for this release include the new Live View interface for dynamically updating class/flag/return filters, a planar surface statistics point cloud task for testing point cloud precision, a ground cleaner point cloud task for cleanup of unclassified ground patches and a Coordinate Reference System (CRS) Utility for inserting CRS information into LAS file headers. A new feature is an automated stockpile toe extractor for defining the base for volumetric computations. Several new features aimed at engineering applications, such as volumetric analysis, include a feature edit tool for selecting and deleting features as well as an attribute and schema editor for the direct viewing and editing of feature attributes. 

Each copy of LP360 includes both a Windows standalone and an ArcGIS extension license. Everyone who has LP360 on current maintenance will be able to update to the new release by using the “LP360 – Check for updates” feature in LP360. To renew maintenance, please contact [email protected].
