3DEPICT(1)						      General Commands Manual							3DEPICT(1)

NAME

       3Depict - 3D scalar point cloud visualization and analysis

SYNOPSIS

       3depict <file1><file2>...

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the 3Depict command

       3depict is a program that allows for visualisation and analysis of point datasets with associated spectral data.

       Note  that  the	program  is a best-effort system. It is by no means guaranteed that the algorithms in this program are free form errors in
       implementation, or follow conventions for any specific user-application.

OPTIONS

       This program has no command line options, other than a sequence of data or XML files to open, the XML files  being  containing  a  previous
       program	state  (this may be generated from within the program's graphical interface). Currently the program can read "POS" (position) for-
       matted files, which are simply uncompressed sequences of 4-byte floats (IEEE 597) in (x,y,z,value) form. All other work is done through the
       graphical interface.

       As a further note, the XML file format has not been stabilised for the 0.0.x series; and may change between revisions
