Describe Eval-point-cloud here.

AltWG (Hari) created a java app as part of the AltWG software distribution that is designed to take a point cloud of vectors and compare it to a truth OBJ.  The arguments appear to be the same as the standard [[CompareOBJ]] commonly used.

== How to Generate ==

 * Create the point cloud file
   . cp MAPINFO.TXT t
   . sed -i .orig 's/>//g' t 
   . sort -n -k 11 t > t2
   . cut -c 1-6 t2 > t3
   . sed -i .orig 's/$/.LMK/' t3
   . num=`wc t3 | cut -c 1-8`
   . max=`echo -1 \* $num \* .8 | bc`
   . head $max t3 > t4
   . cd LMKFILES
   . grep VLM `cat ../t4` | cut -c 15-74 > ../ptCloud.txt
   . sed -i .org 's/D/E/g' ../ptCloud.txt

 * Run ComparePointCloud
   . cd ~/Dropbox/SPC-ORex/eval_tools/altwg-2016.01.25-macosx-x64/bin
   . ComparePointCloudToOBJ ptCloud1.txt truth3.4.obj
