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.
GLTF File
GLTF (Graphics Language Transmission Format) file format is developed and maintained by the Khronos Group organisation. There are currently two versions of GLTF file format, the first 1.0 and the newest one 2.0, with the preference for the version 2.0 as it is more recent. By default a GLTF file is saved in an ASCII text mode. To save a GLTF file in a binary mode with all referenced texture images a GLB file extension should be used instead of a GLTF. The import and export of GLTF and GLB files is fully supported by our Autoconverter and Automesher Application conversion tools.
