Clean Vehicle RTK Point Clouds

Refer to these instructions for cleaning the noise from your Vehicle RTK point clouds using Emesent Aura.

Overview

If traffic is unavoidable during your scan, you may see noise in the point cloud from moving vehicles. You can clean this noise using Emesent Aura.

It is not recommended to use Moving Object Filtering when conducting a vehicle scan as the drone itself will be filtered. Use the manual cleaning workflow described in this article instead.
