Could you build this?
No Transforming massive point cloud LiDAR datasets into engineering-grade CAD/GIS vectors requires specialized 3D geometric computer vision and high-performance computing.
What it would actually take: Requires a high-performance C++/Rust engine capable of streaming and processing multi-gigabyte/terabyte point cloud datasets in real time. The algorithmic challenge is semantic 3D segmentation, feature extraction (edge/curb/pole identification), and vectorization into strictly formatted CAD/GIS formats (DWG, DXF, Shapefile). This demands specialized expertise in 3D computer vision, computational geometry, photogrammetry, and CAD software internals.
