Auto-Align Scans
This command will run a scan matching algorithm, which compares Scans from different
scanner locations, identifies overlapping areas and then provides an initial alignment.
During the import process Cube Images are created and stored in a
Scene.hds.files
folder next to the Database files.
 These files are needed for the command Registration | Create ScanWorld Groups
from Auto-Alignment (see
Module 3 - Registration
).
