Stereoscopic Aerial CAD on Point Cloud
StereoCloud3D streams massive LiDAR and photogrammetric point clouds in real time and lets you digitize precise CAD features in true stereoscopic 3D — where every vertex lands exactly on the surface.
What it does
From raw LAS/LAZ to a finished, accurate vector deliverable — without leaving the 3D model.
Tiled level-of-detail streaming keeps clouds of hundreds of millions to billions of points smooth on ordinary workstations.
Side-by-side, top-bottom, quad-buffer or anaglyph stereo for accurate depth perception while you draw.
Lines, polylines, breaklines, contours, building outlines and more — snapping elevation straight to the cloud.
Automatically seed a grid of spot heights sampled from the cloud, with spike removal and stereo verification.
One control trades crispness for fluidity, so huge scenes stay responsive on any GPU.
Per-project reports: operator, time worked, points used, entities produced and dataset sizes.
Massive clouds, fluid navigation
A streaming tile engine loads only what is visible, at a resolution matched to your zoom. Pan and zoom stay smooth even on 1.5 billion-point scenes; a crisp full-resolution pass renders the instant you stop.
True depth, real accuracy
Perceive genuine relief and place vertices on the correct surface — ground, roof ridge or wire — instead of guessing from a flat view. Adjustable parallax and eye-swap make fusion comfortable on your hardware.
From cloud to deliverable
Digitize themed features with one-key macros, generate a complete spot height plan sampled from the terrain, manage layers and groups, and export to DXF.
Performance
StereoCloud3D is engineered around datasets that bring ordinary viewers to a halt.
During navigation the cloud is drawn at a coarser detail so panning and zooming stay fluid; a fraction of a second after you stop, one full-resolution frame is rendered. A single Cloud Performance control — Fast, Balanced or Quality — lets each operator match the trade-off to their GPU.

StereoCloud3D is designed and developed by dr. eng. Luca Menci.
This software is the result of more than two decades of expertise and know-how at Menci Software. It is an evolution of StereoCAD — the stereo drawing system on blocks of oriented images.
The product is currently distributed by Iter, Arezzo, Italy.
