Get Highest Layer Clouds
Function
This Step sorts the centers of point cloud parts in descending order along a specified direction, and then obtains the highest-layer point cloud.
Usage Scenario
Keep point clouds that meet the requirements along the user-defined reference direction. Unlike Get Highest-Layer Points, this Step process the point cloud directly and usually follows Steps such as Point Cloud Clustering, and Apply Masks to Point Cloud.
Input and Output
Input
| Input port | Data type | Description |

Parameter Description
Reference Direction
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
X, Y, Z |
Default setting: X = 0; Y = 0; Z = 1.0
|
Layer Settings
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
Only Get Highest One |
Default Value: Unselected.
|
Layer Height |
Description: This parameter is used to set the layer height of the highest-layer point clouds. Point clouds within this height will be retained. Default value: 100.000 mm The figure below shows the output effects when the layer height is set to 100.000 mm and 35.000 mm, respectively.
