PCD file format information

Extension	PCD
Full Name	Point Cloud Library
Type	3D Model/Point Cloud
Mime Type	application/octet-stream
Format	Text

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 colour 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 colour, 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.

PCD Converter Capabilities

Our PCD converter can both convert from and to PCD files, and our developers are working to improve our PCD conversion tools in future versions. When converting 3D model or mesh files using our PCD converter, we will attempt to convert colour materials into a suitable format for use in the converted file.
