Spherical Scan process stopped before final point cloud creation
During a spherical scan process, the data for each horizontal sweep is stored in
a separate temporary file. When all horizontal scans are completed, the individual
scans are combined into a single file. If the system shuts down or aborts before
the software reaches the merge portion of the process, the operator can manually
merge the xyz files by copying all the data into a single xyz file using a text editor
such as Notepad.
