Lidar Topography
archiLidar Topography
archiGenerates high-density topography surfaces using Lidar point cloud scans.
Trial
Topography is a high-performance topography creator that imports and interprets high-density Lidar airplane scans that are freely available online. The result is an absolute magical topographical surface that can be used in tight curve intervals and provide an accurate description of the terrain. Architects and engineers can now work with free raw data that surpasses the old-fashioned low-density topographic curves from old CAD cartography.
Benefits:
- Create a high-quality model quickly that realistically describes the terrain of your project.
- Save money by using free laser scan Lidar datasets instead of buying inaccurate and expensive old-fashioned cartography. Links to Lidar sources are supplied in the program.
- Process millions of point cloud datasets in a matter of seconds. Take full advantage of a multi-core processor to speed up the creation of your terrain.
Features:
- Imports very large point clouds with millions of points as uncompressed LAS or compressed LAZ formats.
- Create topographic models with different density levels in accordance with your data source and requirements.
- Advanced algorithm to correctly interpret and isolate the terrain data from complex laser scans.
- Fully optimized to computers with multi-core processors for quicker results.
- Allows accurate geographical placement of topographic points in relation to the coordinate of your Autodesk® Revit® internal point.
- Possible to export the processed terrain as a CSV dataset for external use in other software.

Topography is sold online as floating, perpetual, and subscription licenses. Please browse and buy, using a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) on the topography webpage of the Archi web store. Payment is processed via our partner PayPal: all major credit cards are accepted.
Are there any known issues with this product?
There are no known issues with the software. A selection that exceeds 50,000 points may require a very long time to be processed by Revit.
Is there additional support information provided?
