Abstract

Disclosed are systems and methods for defining, bonding, and editing point cloud data points with primitives. In particular, a system may receive a point cloud with data points that are defined by positional and non-positional elements. The system may associate primitives to each data point based on a material or a property associated with the surface, feature, or article at a position in an imaged three-dimensional (“3D”) environment that corresponds to a particular position of the data point in the point cloud. The system may receive input for a first adjustment to at least one of the data point elements, and may edit point cloud by defining a second adjustment that modifies the first adjustment according to a rule of a particular primitive, and by applying the second adjustment to the at least one element of a first set of data points that are associated with the particular primitive.
