I tried Lidar in microstation and it worked great

[Uncle Wu]

So last Friday, I was making a new Lidar map for a family member's farm. I usually use ArcGIS with data from a Lidar archive, but I decided to try it in MicroStation for the first time. It still showed trees, which was cool, and the results looked really good, I might use this method more often

Nice! MicroStation handles point clouds better than folks give it credit for. Glad it worked out for your project.

That's fantastic! what kind of future LiDAR projects are you now considering tackling in MicroStation that you might have previously done in ArcGIS, or perhaps not done at all?

Thats nice cool, a lot of people don't realize it can display LiDAR data with that level of detail, trees and all, definitely sounds like a workflow worth sticking with
