3D Trees reconstructed from point clouds

Textured rendering (both leaves and branches) coming soon ...

Build and Run AdTree

You can build AdTree from the source code (tested on Windows, macOS, and Linux).

This demo version provides a user interface with menus. Just clicking on the menus will do all the magic :-)

Data

Some test tree point clouds are provided in the 'data' folder.

Note: When testing on your point clouds, please make sure that:

• you point cloud represents a single tree (i.e., the tree is segmented out from the background; no ground, no fence...);
• the tree has an upright orientation (i.e., with Z-axis pointing up).
