Field Information Modeling (FIM)™: Best Practices Using Point Clouds

This study presented established methods, along with new algorithmic developments, to automate point cloud processing in support of the Field Information Modeling (FIM)™ framework. More specifically, given a multi-dimensional (n-D) designed information model, and the point cloud’s spatial uncertaint...
