For production use, get the Potree libraries from: https://github.com/potree/potree/tree/develop/libs ----- **Workflow Integration** This tool converts point cloud data to an optimized web visualization format using PotreeConverter's octree algorithm. The output can be served via a web server and visualized using the Potree viewer. </help> <creator> <organization name="3Dtrees-Team, University of Freiburg" url="https://github.com/3dTrees-earth"/> </creator> <citations> <citation type="bibtex">@misc{potreeconverter, title = {PotreeConverter: Create multi-resolution octree structure}, author = {Markus Schütz}, year = {2024}, url = {https://github.com/potree/PotreeConverter}}</citation> <citation type="bibtex"> @misc{3dtrees_potree, title = {3Dtrees: Potree Converter}, author = {3Dtrees-Project}, year = {2025}} </citation> </citations> </tool>
