point cloud has been output as a .p4d file instead of a .las file when i processed in rapid mode. I need it in .las or similar to load into i-site

Hi Tim,

the&nbsp;_3D Maps - Radip/Low Res_ and\_&nbsp;3D Models - Rapid/Low Res\_ templates do not generate the&nbsp;\_.las&nbsp;\_file by default. To generate it, please ensure that in the&nbsp;_Processing Options_ of Step _2. Point Cloud and Mesh_, the **LAS** box is checked as _Export_ format.
