Sharing Point Clouds Is Still Hard

Point cloud data is powerful – but sharing it with project partners often isn’t.

  • Files are large and difficult to send
  • Viewers require installation or special know-how
  • Stakeholders struggle to understand raw scan data
  • Many cloud solutions feel complex or restrictive

There is a simpler way. It’s called Nebula.

You import your point clouds, convert them with a few clicks, and create a project that can be viewed and shared directly in a web browser with PointCab Nebula.
