3DM to XYZ
Please find below the list of our other useful resources related to 3DM and XYZ interoperability and exchange that could help you with the 3DM to XYZ conversion.

3DM Rhino File
3DM (Rhino) file format for Rhinoceros software allows you to store your 3D model as smooth NURBS surfaces, triangular meshes, points or just curves. Using our Autoconverter software you can save only 3DM polygonal meshes with triangular faces, while the Autoshaper product allows you to store NURBS solids or shells which represent your model in the most accurate way. Our 3DM file converters allow you also to save Rhino files with the required 3DM file version, starting from the Rhino 2.X to the most recent Rhino 8.X file version.
XYZ Point Cloud File
XYZ (Point cloud data) is a file extension used for ASCII text files with the point cloud data. Each row of XYZ file contains 3D point coordinates separated by a special character, usually a TAB and optionally 3D normal vector coordinates for that point. The normal vectors for the points are optional as it is possible to generate them on the fly based on the point cloud structure. Autoconverter is our XYZ file converter which allows you to automatically reconstruct the mesh surface from the point cloud data. Autoshaper is another XYZ file converter which allows you to reconstruct a smooth NURBS surface from scattered points stored in the XYZ file. The alternative file extension for point cloud data can be either ASC or TXT.
