• start a web server at localhost:3000.

Go to http://localhost:3000/examples/ to test the examples.

Deploy to a server

• Simply upload the Potree folderm with all your point clouds, the build directory, and your html files to a web server.

Convert Point Clouds to Potree Format

./PotreeConverter.exe C:/pointclouds/data.las -o C:/pointclouds/data_converted

Copy the converted directory into <potreeDirectory>/pointclouds/data_converted. Then, duplicate and rename one of the examples and modify the path in the html file to your own point cloud.
