Module 2.0 - Introduction to Cyclone
Introduction
The Cyclone scanning and point processing software application was developed by Leica for the
efficient operation all of the Leica HDS scanning systems. Cyclone has become the industry
standard for capturing point-clouds, processing them, and integrating the information into
