XYZ to DWG
Please find below the list of our other useful resources related to XYZ and DWG interoperability and exchange that could help you with the XYZ to DWG conversion.
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.
DWG AutoCAD File
DWG (AutoCAD Drawing) binary file format is developed by Autodesk company but it's supported also in other software packages e.g. ZWCAD, BricsCAD and IntelliCAD. Indeed DWG files are the standard now in the overall CAD industry. To support DWG files conversion into other 3D file formats we have developed the Automesher Application which runs as a plugin in your favorite DWG editor. It means that you need to have your DWG drawing editor installed first before using our software to convert to or from DWG file format.
