3D image format
The 3D data is delivered using the full resolution of the pixel format, currently always 16
bits (for calibrated data).
The
Profiles per image
setting indicates how many profiles to include for each 3D image
and is set in pixels. This value will be the height of the 3D image.
The pixel value 0 is dedicated to represent missing data, i.e. that no valid peak was
found.

Reflectance
The reflectance values along the laser line can be collected in parallel to the 3D
data. The reflectance values are saved as an 8-bit grayscale image, with one value
corresponding to each point in the range dataset.
The
Reflectance
checkbox enables collection of laser reflectance values in addition to
the range data and is on per default.
To view the image with laser reflectance, select
Reflectance
from the drop-down list
above the image viewer.
see "Image components", page 74
for details.
