Place mesh from surveyors data - slow performance

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello!

I'm wondering why Archicad file and the performance becomes so slow, when importing point clouds and creating the terrain (Place mesh from surveyors data). When I open this in other GIS programs for example, it works very fast.

I don't have much experience, but I believe this terrain made out of these points include more information, then I actually need ...
Is there any way to increase Archicad performance, maybe if I simplify the terrain or transform it in any different form?

Any advice will be appreciated

I use Archicad 22.
Thank you.

Huge point clouds do not work very well or not well at all, at least on my computer.
