Distributed measurement system for scanning projects
A system and method for providing a distributed measurement system. The system performs operations that include receiving, via a user interface of a user device, a request to access a data file of a project. The project includes one or more data files including the data file, and at least one of the one or more data files is generated based at least in part on measurement data output from a measurement device. One or more editing options are provided for editing the data file. The one or more editing options vary based at least in part on one or both of a characteristic of the user device and a characteristic of the data file. The data file is edited in response to receiving an editing request that includes an editing option of the one or more editing options.
1. A system for providing a distributed measurement system, the system comprising:
a memory having computer readable instructions; and
one or more processors for executing the computer readable instructions, the computer readable instructions controlling the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
receiving, via a user interface of a user device, a request to access a data file of a project, the project comprising a plurality of data files including the data file, at least one of the plurality of data files comprising point cloud data generated based at least in part on measurement data output from a measurement device;
providing one or more editing options for editing the data file, wherein the one or more editing options vary based at least in part on one or both of a characteristic of the user device and a characteristic of the data file, wherein the characteristic of the data file includes a density of the data file when the data file comprises point cloud data; and
editing the data file in response to receiving an editing request that includes an editing option of the one or more editing options.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the measurement device includes a scanner and the measurement data includes scan data.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the editing options further vary based at least in part on a location of a processor executing an application performing the receiving, providing and editing.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise retrieving the data file and displaying contents of the data file via the user interface.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise storing the data file in a storage location on the user device.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise storing the data file in a cloud storage location.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise further comprising transmitting the data file to another user device.
8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the user device includes a camera and the editing option includes adding an image to the data file.
9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the user device includes an inertial measurement unit, and the editing option includes identifying a position of the user device.
10. A method of providing a distributed measurement system, the method comprising:
receiving, via a user interface of a user device, a request to access a data file of a project, the project comprising a plurality of data files including the data file, at least one of the plurality of data files comprising point cloud data generated based at least in part on measurement data output from a measurement device;
providing one or more editing options for editing the data file, wherein the one or more editing options vary based at least in part on one or both of a characteristic of the user device and a characteristic of the data file, wherein the characteristic of the data file includes a density of the data file when the data file comprises point cloud data; and
editing the data file in response to receiving an editing request that includes an editing option of the one or more editing options.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the measurement device includes a scanner and the measurement data includes scan data.
12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the editing options further vary based at least in part on a location of a processor executing an application performing the receiving, providing and editing.
13. The method of claim 10 , further comprising retrieving the data file and displaying contents of the data file via the user interface.
14. The method of claim 10 , further comprising storing the data file in a storage location on the user device.
15. The method of claim 10 , further comprising storing the data file in a cloud storage location.
16. The method of claim 10 , further comprising transmitting the data file to another user device.
17. A computer program product for providing a distributed measurement system, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
receiving, via a user interface of a user device, a request to access a data file of a project, the project comprising a plurality of data files including the data file, at least one of the plurality of data files comprising point cloud data generated based at least in part on measurement data output from a measurement device;
providing one or more editing options for editing the data file, wherein the one or more editing options vary based at least in part on one or both of a characteristic of the user device and a characteristic of the data file, wherein the characteristic of the data file includes a density of the data file when the data file comprises point cloud data; and
editing the data file in response to receiving an editing request that includes an editing option of the one or more editing options.
18. The computer program product of claim 17 , wherein the measurement device includes a scanner and the measurement data includes scan data.
