3D pointcloud results from Winprop?
Hi, I am looking at WinProp for a project where I would like to visualise 5G coverage in an urban environment as 3D volumes (meshes), similar to the way farfields are visualised in PostFEKO. So far I have only seen examples that show results as 2D planes (overlayed on 3d terrain).
Is it possible to get full 3D data out of Winprop? XYZ ASCII point cloud data would be fine, but I cannot find documentation that confirms if this is possible.

Hi Richard,
as mentioned by Zeina you can define multiple prediction heights in the project when using the area mode.
In this case the ASCII exported result (check box under the Propagation tab) would look like this i.e. you get every pixel (x y) computed for every defined height (z) which is the 3rd column, the 4th column gives the computed value e.g. Rx power in dBm:
92.50000 12.50000 1.50000 -55.367
92.50000 12.50000 5.00000 -55.497
92.50000 17.50000 1.50000 -54.186
92.50000 17.50000 5.00000 -54.296

Best regards,

Hi Richard,
In WinProp you can request results in three different ways:
If you need a 3D volume or a random surface (flat or not) that cannot be defined by the first method (1.) , you can use method (2.) by preparing the points of interest in a *.txt file and importing them.
By the way, the farfield results displayed in PostFeko are not volumetric. The farfield is displayed on a closed 2D surface.
