For converting point clouds to CAD, we’re excited to introduce GstarCAD Point Cloud 2026! Integrated with Undet Point Cloud plugin
This powerful solution offers a full suite of tools that allow you to seamlessly import and manage point cloud data directly in GstarCAD. You can create point cloud projects seamlessly with data from any laser scanner or drone in Undet Indexer, then open, transform, and manage them directly in GstarCAD (Supported formats: *.E57, *.FLS, *.RCP/RCS, *.PTX, *.ZFS,*.LAS, *.LAZ, *.PTS, *.PLY, *.DP, *.FPR, *.LSPROJ, *.FWS, *.CL3, *.CLR, *.RSP, ASCII / NEZ (X,Y,Z/i/RGB) and custom ASCII / TXT file format import). GstarCAD Point Cloud also offers interactive editing and visualization capabilities, allowing users to view, analyze and navigate your digital data as a panoramic view in Undet Browser, speeding up the creation process. Let’s have a further look at these exciting features!
Undet Point Cloud
Undet Point Cloud tab provides a variety of tools for processing, visualizing, and managing point cloud data.
- Visualization and Display
GstarCAD Point Cloud offers various visualization modes that allow you to understand the geometry and focus on critical areas. You can adjust point density settings to match hardware performance, ensuring smooth processing even with large datasets.
- Clipping Box Tools
Clipping Box tools enables precise focus on sections of a point cloud. You can create clipping boxes by line or rectangle and set the thickness and orientation, enhancing control over data and making it easier to work with specific areas.
- Feature Extraction and Meshing
Feature Extraction tools enable quick detection and extraction of wall lines and planes from point cloud data, facilitating efficient CAD drawing creation. Meshing tools allow users to edit and modify meshes within your CAD drawings, making them ideal for representing terrains or structural details.
- Draping Tools
Draping tools enable polylines and objects to be accurately draped onto the point cloud, aligning them with real-world contours to ensure a precise fit for design applications.
- Image Generation
Ortho and profile image tools convert point clouds into high-resolution images. Adjustable resolution, rendering sources, and thickness settings help capture details from the point cloud.
- Undet Browser
Undet Browser view synchronizes with the GstarCAD environment, allowing users to view panoramic images and check sections in a real-time setting, which is especially useful for quality control and analysis.
Undet Floor Plan
Undet Floor Plan tab enhances the experience of working with floor plans by providing tools for vectorization, annotation, and efficient data handling.
- Section View
Section View tab provides tools to create detailed sections directly from point cloud data, such as Auto Line tool, opening tool, along with wall, door, and window insertion tools, making it easy to extract and detail key architectural elements.
- Floor View
Floor View tab enables efficient drafting and annotation of floor plans, including features for quick layer selection, floor level markings and quick block insertion, enhancing clarity and detail in drawings.
- Ceiling View
Ceiling View tab also includes tools for annotating ceiling levels, quick layer selection and adding structural details to ceiling plans, ensuring both accuracy and efficiency.
- Axis and View Control
GstarCAD offers UCS adjustment tools for precise alignment, along with view control options like view-switch shortcuts, multiple viewports, visual styles, and Point Cloud Orbit. These features enable smooth 3D navigation and accurate element placement within floor plans.
- Draw and Modify
You can access GstarCAD’s standard drawing and editing tools for quick drafting, along with Layer management features that keep drawings organized and adaptable to design needs.
- Express Tools
Undet Floor Plan offers additional tools, such as Measure Geometry, Get Distance, FitMarks, which further expands the drafting capability on point clouds, enhancing accuracy and streamlining workflows, allowing for more efficient manipulation of point cloud data directly within GstarCAD.
What’s New
| Point Cloud Scale Factor | Density Settings Control Buttons |
| Adjust the unit scale of point cloud data (e.g., inches, mm, meters) to match your drawing units, ensuring accurate alignment and measurements. | Quickly change point cloud density settings with new control buttons for Threshold to load full density and Max visible preview point count. |
- Logic Classes
Easily classify and manage point cloud data using Logic Classes, with tools to create, merge, group, and assign sections for better organization and visibility.
- 3P Wall
Create walls with precision using three points: two for length and one for width, and switch between Single and Chain modes for flexible wall creation.
Conclusion
GstarCAD Point Cloud 2026, powered by the integrated Undet Point Cloud plugin, emerges as a game-changing solution for bridging point cloud data and CAD workflows—addressing the core needs of accuracy, efficiency, and seamless integration that professionals in architecture, engineering, and surveying demand. By supporting an extensive range of point cloud formats (from laser scanners and drones alike) and offering a robust toolkit—spanning flexible visualization modes, precise clipping tools, automated feature extraction, meshing, and draping—this software eliminates friction between raw 3D data and actionable 2D/3D CAD drawings.
