You can generate maps for an Alignment Bundle currently in the database.
Procedure
Go to Site Setup >Dataset Management.
Note: .e57 files must have Normals to generate a map successfully.
If you are generating maps for the first time, click Create Maps and Navgraph next to the alignment bundle for which you want to add maps.
If you have already added maps and want to regenerate them, open the Advanced drop-down menu and click Recreate Maps.
Click Publish when you have finished.
The information necessary to describe a set of datasets, especially where the datasets are located in the world and relative to each other.
Site refers to a complex of one or more buildings displayed in a NavVis IVION instance. For example, the Munich Airport would be one site. An instance can contain multiple sites. Each site consists of one or more datasets.
A dataset is a piece of a site, the result of a continuous recording with a NavVis mapping device or the result of an imported point cloud. Datasets can contain panoramic images and point clouds.
Normals are perpendicular to the tangent plane line at a particular point on the surface. They yield especially useful information about a curved surface's characteristics but conversely can tell us much about the planarity of a flat or angular surface also. Normals can tell us the rate of change of curvature when a surface has an angular departure and tell us just how perfectly flat something is.
