Modules	Description
AddInfo	Inserts or updates ODM attributes by combining existing attributes and/or grid models.
Bounds	Derives and stores the 2D boundary polygon of a region covered by the point data of an ODM or the valid pixels of a raster.
Colorize
DirectGeoref	Transforms points from scanner coordinates into geo-referenced coordinates by applying the sensor model (flight trajectory, mounting parameters).
EchoRatio	Derives and stores the echo ratio (ER) attribute for points of an OPALS data manager.
Export	Exports vector data stored in an OPALS data manager (ODM) in various data formats.
Fullwave	Performs decomposition of the full waveform signal and provides 3D coordinates (scanner system) and additional attributes for each return.
Histo	Derives histograms and descriptive statistics (min, max, mean, r.m.s, etc.) for ODM or grid/raster data sets and stores the results graphically (SVG) and numerically (XML).
Import	Loads vector and raster data into an ODM for subsequent use in modules dealing with point cloud and line related data.
Info	Extracts and reports header information of a vector or raster file (ODM, GDAL).
Normals	Estimates local surface normal vectors for each point of a specific point cloud (ODM).
PointStats	Derives and stores statistical parameters describing the local distribution of a point attribute for each point of an ODM.
RadioCal	Performs radiometric calibration of ALS data and calculates physical quantities (backscatter cross section/coefficient, reflectance) for each return.
Rasterize	Performs vector-to-raster conversion for all types of simple feature geometries (points, lines, polygons).
Segmentation	Provides methods for point cloud segmentation based on local homogeneity using either a generic region growing approach or an adapted region growing for plane extraction.
TIN	Creates a TIN surface from ODM vector data based on a 2D constrained Delaunay triangulation.
Translate	Performs format conversion for vector data files with additional read support of GDAL rasters.
Vectorize	Performs raster-to-vector conversion and exports polyline geometries.
View	Provides an interactive 3d viewer for points (including arbitrary attributes) and lines.
ZColor	Derives color coded visualizations of grid models and stores them as geo-coded raster images.
