Dear All,

 

Let me introduce Dandelion to you, a revolutionized point-cloud-based modeler for Archicad!

Dandelion is a powerful yet lightweight point-cloud-processing application designed specifically for Building Information Modeling (BIM) software. With Dandelion, you can efficiently work with point cloud data, streamline your BIM workflows, and enhance your project accuracy.

 

Key features

  1. Space Boundary-based Modeling
    • Single-click generation of faces forming the boundaries of open or closed spaces
    • Walls are automatically generated around room/space boundaries
  2. Recognition of Doors, Windows and Openings
    • Click-based measurement of openings: measure doors, windows and general openings, automatically sending them to your BIM app
  3. Level/Story Generation
    • Automatic elevation histogram: quickly analyze point density and visualize elevation variations
    • Filter and send selected peak elevations as story levels directly to your project
  4. Lightweight Viewer App
    • Modeling in 3D: thanks to the performance of a lightweight external viewer, all input are done in a fully detailed 3D environment with real-time connection to the host BIM app
    • Hierarchical cloud segmentation: create cross sections, isolate stories within your point cloud and transfer them to the host app for further analysis
    • Click-based recognition of planar subsets: generate surface geometries for meshes, polylines, walls and zones and seamlessly transfer them to your BIM app
    • Real-time synchronization with Archicad
  5. And much more...
