Compass csv export

Post by Laucha22 »

Hi I'm starting to use the plugin and I don't understand which means each of columns in the csv export file.
Name,Strike,Dip,Dip_Dir,Cx,Cy,Cz,Nx,Ny,Nz,Sample_Radius,RMS,Gx,Gy,Gz,Length
I understand what means Name, strike, dip and dip direction but the others I don't know what it mean
thanks for your response

Cx,y,z is the center point local coordinates (with the Global Shift applied).
Nx,y,z is the normal vector.
Sample_Radius is the radius of the sample (probably related to the radius of the circle you used to fit a facet for instance)
RMS is the fitting RMS of the points relatively to the fitted plane
Gx,y,z is the center point global coordinates.
Length is the largest dimension of the rectangle.

You can see what the values correspond to in the code if it's clearer: https://github.com/CloudCompare/CloudCo ... rt.cpp#L72
