The PCD file format, short for Point Cloud Data, is a 3D graphics format designed specifically for storing 3D point clouds. A point cloud is simply a collection of points in 3D space, along with optional color information.
Points are stored within the PCD file in the form of their X, Y, and Z coordinates. If the point is to be rendered in a particular color, this is also included with the coordinate. PCD files can be either plain ASCII text or binary in format, with the binary format being more compact.
PCD files can be opened with several 3D editing packages and also converted to other point cloud formats, such as PTX, using our suite of PCD conversion tools that are designed specifically for point cloud data conversion.
