Leica Cyclone.
The point cloud software suite behind Leica scanners: field capture in Cyclone FIELD 360, registration in REGISTER 360 PLUS, and deliverables in Cyclone 3DR.
Four modules, one chain of custody.
Cyclone is a family rather than a single application. Which modules you need depends on the deliverable: capture and registration cover most rental projects; 3DR and ENTERPRISE come in when you are producing or hosting models.
The tablet app for scanner control and on-site pre-alignment. Each REGISTER 360 PLUS licence includes access to it, so scans arrive already roughly aligned with field tags and images attached.
The registration and data-preparation core: guided workflows through to automated registration, with built-in QA reporting and batch export.
3DR handles meshing, inspection and reporting; ENTERPRISE handles project and data management when the cloud has to be shared across a team.
Publishing out of Cyclone.
REGISTER 360 PLUS batch-exports to Leica-native and industry-standard formats. LGSx is the universal Leica project file for downstream CloudWorx, Cyclone 3DR and Hexagon GeoCloud use; RCP is the route into the Autodesk stack. Confirm the format you need before your rental starts.
Compare handheld and tripod workflows| Format | Typical downstream use |
|---|---|
| LGSx | CloudWorx, Cyclone 3DR, Hexagon GeoCloud |
| RCP | Autodesk ReCap and Revit reference |
| E57 | Vendor-neutral exchange |
| LAS · PTS | Point cloud tooling and GIS |
| QA report | Registration evidence for the client |
Field to deliverable.
Run the scanner from Cyclone FIELD 360 on a tablet. Scans pre-align on site; tags and images attach as you go.
Import into REGISTER 360 PLUS. Refine the field registration, clean noise, and merge projects from repeat visits.
Read the QA tools and automated reporting before anything leaves your desk: registration quality is evidence, not a feeling.
Batch export to LGSx, RCP, E57 or LAS, or take the cloud into Cyclone 3DR for meshing and inspection deliverables.
How it fits a Leica rental.
Cyclone is licensed by Leica Geosystems, not by Volumet. If you rent the BLK360 G2 or RTC360 from us, tell us what you already hold: we will confirm what the kit ships with and what you need on your own workstation before the rental starts.
- Tell us which Cyclone modules and licences you already have
- Field-app access and scanner control are confirmed at handover
- Office registration normally runs on your own licence
- You keep every dataset you capture and process
- State required export formats before booking
