OrthoGraph BLK360 helps you capture, organize, and process survey data from a Leica BLK360 G1 directly on your iPad. Important: This app is compatible only with the Leica BLK360 G1 imaging laser scanner. Free features: - Control scan resolution and capture full-dome scans - View 360° panoramic images - Add labels, photos, and voice notes - Transfer projects directly from the scanner - Export colorized point clouds in E57 format - Save and continue working with projects on your iPad Subscription features: - Automatic point-cloud registration using wall geometry - Advanced automatic registration for complex mechanical spaces with dense piping and limited wall surfaces - User-assisted point-cloud registration - Register All with final Bundle Optimization to refine all scan positions together and maximize overall point-cloud coherence - Cut-plane view revealing floor-plan slices and pipe cross-sections for precise visual alignment - Point-cloud cleanup with a resizable spherical brush for removing stray points and scanning noise - Optimized point-cloud download performance - Distance and surface measurements - Freehand annotations - Floor-plan creation from panoramic images and point-cloud data - Multi-story Scan-to-BIM workflows - Setup alignment - IFC and DXF export - On-site and off-site data processing - Direct links from CAFM, CMMS, and BIM systems to spatial annotations in their point-cloud context A CAFM, CMMS, or BIM system can open a specific spatial annotation directly together with its surrounding point-cloud context. This turns each project into an addressable 3D knowledge base that external systems can navigate directly. Bring BLK360 G1 scan data into a practical, mobile workflow—from field capture to measurements, floor plans, point clouds, and BIM deliverables.

Pointscape is a point cloud viewer for iPad and iPhone. Open multi-gigabyte E57, LAS, LAZ and COPC LiDAR scans on the device already in your pocket, measure on site, pin findings in 3D, and hand over a PDF report before you leave. Free to download, no account required. BUILT FOR THE FIELD Pointscape is the point cloud viewer for AEC: surveyors, scanning service firms, BIM and VDC teams, engineers, and contractors who do not sit at a workstation. Open the registered scan on site, check it against what you see, and record the finding where it sits. OPENS ANYTHING • E57, LAS, LAZ, COPC, and PLY, plus XYZ, PCD, BPF, CSV, and TXT • Multi-gigabyte files open without waiting for a full download • Import from Files, Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, or Box • Works offline on site. Also runs on Apple silicon Macs. MEASURE AND INSPECT • Distance, area, height, and angle, with snap to point • Pin notes and issues directly on the scan in 3D • Filter by classification to isolate ground, vegetation, or buildings • Eye-Dome Lighting for crisp edges on dense scans • Color by RGB, height, intensity, or classification. Adjustable point size and shape. REPORT BEFORE YOU LEAVE • One-tap PDF report with the project address, annotated snapshots, and measurements • Works on scans that live only in the cloud, nothing to download first AI ON YOUR SCANS Add the Pointscape plugin to the AI assistant you already use, through the open MCP standard. Ask it to check a slab against tolerance, find gaps in coverage, clean up classification or fly the camera for a client. Issues and measurements land in your project and its PDF report. Nothing is shared until you turn it on per scan. Add AI to Pro or Cloud. Needs your own AI account; Pointscape runs no AI model. PROJECTS AND TEAMS • Keep every scan, report, and note for a site together in one project • Upload a project to the cloud and stream it to any device; recent files stay offline • Share projects with teammates in a workspace, synced across iPhone and iPad PLANS • Free: open and view point clouds, up to 3 projects • Pro: measurements, PDF reports, all coloring modes, classification filters, unlimited projects. 7-day free trial. • Cloud: everything in Pro plus cloud storage, streaming, offline downloads, and team workspaces • Add AI to any plan: your own AI on your scans, via MCP Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Pointscape at 5.0 against OrthoGraph BLK360's 1.4. Pointscape also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 4 months). OrthoGraph BLK360's advantage is ratings volume (8 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. OrthoGraph BLK360 sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $59.99 per month and Pointscape sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Pointscape holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 1.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OrthoGraph BLK360 has 8 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
OrthoGraph BLK360 ships an update every 4 months, Pointscape every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 9, 2026 respectively.
