Welcome to our 3D Laser Scan Sample Files page. Here, you can download different types of 3D scan outputs to evaluate and test with your software or workflow. These files are commonly used in industries such as architecture, construction, engineering, and manufacturing. 3D Laser scanning is used to create 3D models of everything from landscapes and structures to vehicles and small parts.
Once the raw scan data is acquired, CAD software is used to turn that point cloud into a usable digital model. Various software applications can be used for 3D modeling, creating 3D environments and digital twins, wireframes, BIM, and generating the necessary output files for 3D printing. Trying this on your own can be a fascinating learning experience, so we’ve collected some files in a variety of formats for you to explore.
These files are for testing and personal use only. Please do not publish or distribute.
We provide sample 3D laser scan data in various formats, including:
LAS (.las) – Standard LiDAR point cloud format
E57 (.e57) – Compressed 3D point cloud exchange format
PLY (.ply) – Polygonal mesh format
OBJ (.obj) – Textured mesh format
XYZ (.xyz) – Simple text-based point cloud format
