# pcl\_compute\_cloud\_error(1)

pcl\_compute\_cloud\_error

## NAME

pcl\_compute\_cloud\_error - pcl\_compute\_cloud\_error

## DESCRIPTION

Syntax is: pcl\_compute\_cloud\_error source.pcd target.pcd output\_intensity.pcd \<options\>

  where options are:

 **-correspondence** X = the way of selecting the corresponding pair in the target cloud for the current point in the source cloud

 options are: index = points with identical indices are paired together. Note: both clouds need to have the same number of points

    nn = source point is paired with its nearest neighbor in the target cloud

    nnplane = source point is paired with its projection on the plane determined by the nearest neighbor in the target cloud. Note: target cloud needs to contain normals

 (default: index)

## AUTHOR

pcl\_compute\_cloud\_error is part of Point Cloud Library (PCL) - www.pointclouds.org

The Point Cloud Library (PCL) is a standalone, large scale, open project for 2D/3D image and point cloud processing.

This manual page was written by Leopold Palomo-Avellaneda \<leo@alaxarxa.net\> with the help of help2man tool and some handmade arrangement for the Debian project (and may be used by others).
