After installation, launch the Get3D Viewer.

1 Open Models or Other Data

Get3D Viewer provide multiple methods to open local data, you can directly open local data files in various formats, and different types of data layers can be viewed simultaneously.

Open File

There are four ways to open a model, point cloud, vector, image, or project file:

(1) Drag the file directly into the software window.

(PICTURE)

(2) Click the Select File button at the center of the interface, and select the data file.

(3) Click File > Open File from menu bar, and select the data file.

(4) Use the shortcut Ctrl + O.

Open Folder

For models in the OSGB format, which are stored in multiple layers within folders, you can open and browse them using the following four methods:

(1) Drag the folder directly into the software window.

(PICTURE)

(2) Click the Folders button at the center of the interface, and select the root directory.

(3) Click File > Open Folder from the menu bar, and select the root directory.

(4) Use the shortcut Ctrl + I.

2 Model Viewing and Analysis

After uploading the file or folder, you can browse and view the model in various modes, such as texture mode, wireframe mode, and more. In addition to browsing, you can measure, annotate, or generate additional outputs based on the model. Get3D Viewer offers a variety of tools, which will be explained in the 'How to use it' section.

3 Save Project

After viewing the models, or making changes(e.g., labels, watermarks, etc.), save it as a Get3D Viewer project using File > Save from the menu or the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + S.

The data for the model and other layers will be saved as a project file (.dvp). Next time, you can quickly browse by opening the project file without reloading the model.

4 Exit View

After saving the project, click File > Close All or using shotcut Ctrl +W to clear the current model. You can then re-import models and create a new project.

5 Quit Get3D Viewer

When you have completed all operations and saved your work, exit the software by clicking the close button or selecting File > Exit from the menu.
