12 - 22 Module 2.0 – Navigator & Navigator’s Objects Introduction to Cyclone
By default, a ScanWorld contains a ControlSpace and three folders – One each for ModelSpaces,
Scans, and Images. Each of these folders may contain additional folders as well. ScanWorlds can
also contain Projects.
A ScanWorld may contain only one frozen Registration.

.
All objects part of a ScanWorld can be viewed in the ScanWorld’s TruSpace. This panoramic
viewer can be opened up through right-click on the single ScanWorld icon. TruSpaces for
registered data can be accessed via a KeyPlan (see below).
Next to visualization the TruSpace allows jumping to other scanner locations, target extraction as
well as point to point measurements.
Definition of a ControlSpace
When a ScanWorld is created, a subordinate ControlSpace is automatically created and placed
within the ScanWorld in the
Navigator
window. It cannot be moved, copied, or deleted.
A ControlSpace is similar to a ModelSpace View. It is used as a container for all objects attached
to its parent ScanWorld that are designated as constraint objects or possible constraint objects.
The ControlSpace is used to review, organize, or remove objects; it is also used to add
constraints manually. However, objects in the ControlSpace cannot be moved or resized.
When an object is removed from the ControlSpace, it cannot anymore be used in subsequent
registrations.
Definition of a ModelSpace
The primary ModelSpace folder contains various ModelSpaces. A ModelSpace contains certain
information from the Database that has been processed, modelled, or changed in a specific way.
The objects that are actually worked on are called ModelSpace Views.
Definition of a ModelSpace View
A ModelSpace View is the actual entity or object that is worked on or changed.
This is where you will make all changes to the point cloud or create models based on the points.
Definition of a KeyPlan
A KeyPlan can be created and added to the
Navigator
as a plan type interface for easy location
of ScanWorlds and launching the respective TruSpace hence circumventing a complex Navigator
hierarchy.
5.2 Hierarchy of the Database’s Objects
In Cyclone, most objects “belong” to another object, depending on their positions in the
hierarchy in the
Navigator
Window.
•
Databases contain Projects
•
Projects contain:
o ScanWorlds
