Reduce your 3D modeling time by more than 50%

EdgeWise automatically extracts plant and building features from point clouds,
reducing modeling time from days to hours

Welcome

The scientists at ClearEdge 3D have developed groundbreaking algorithms that can identify and extract pipes, walls, structures and other complex building and plant features from point clouds. Our Automated Feature Extraction algorithms can dramatically reduce your modeling time and optimize your workflows by eliminating much of the manual production of 3D models.
