The input DEM The input DEM.
- Conversion Mode
- Available choices are:
- DEM : DEM conversion mode
- 3D grid : 3D grid conversion mode
Output Cartographic Map Projection Parameters of the output map projection to be used. Available choices are:
- Universal Trans-Mercator (UTM) : A system of transverse mercator projections dividing the surface of Earth between 80S and 84N latitude.
- Zone number : The zone number ranges from 1 to 60 and allows defining the transverse mercator projection (along with the hemisphere).
- Northern Hemisphere : The transverse mercator projections are defined by their zone number as well as the hemisphere. Activate this parameter if your image is in the northern hemisphere.
- Lambert II Etendu : This is a Lambert Conformal Conic projection mainly used in France.
- Lambert93 : This is a Lambert 93 projection mainly used in France.
- WGS 84 : This is a Geographical projection
- EPSG Code : This code is a generic way of identifying map projections, and allows specifying a large amount of them. See www.spatialreference.org to find which EPSG code is associated to your projection;
- EPSG Code : See www.spatialreference.org to find which EPSG code is associated to your projection.
The input color image The input color image.
The output Ply file The output Ply file.

Example¶
To run this example in command-line, use the following:
otbcli_GeneratePlyFile -indem image_dem.tif -out out.ply -incolor image_color.tif
To run this example from Python, use the following code snippet:
#!/usr/bin/python
# Import the otb applications package
import otbApplication
# The following line creates an instance of the GeneratePlyFile application
GeneratePlyFile = otbApplication.Registry.CreateApplication("GeneratePlyFile")
# The following lines set all the application parameters:
GeneratePlyFile.SetParameterString("indem", "image_dem.tif")
GeneratePlyFile.SetParameterString("out", "out.ply")
GeneratePlyFile.SetParameterString("incolor", "image_color.tif")
# The following line execute the application
GeneratePlyFile.ExecuteAndWriteOutput()
