Abstract
Having been of the first importance in many research fields, the use of three-dimensional point cloud data is predominantly emphasized in the current study. In order to improve the process of construction production in particular, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transportation and Tourism (MLIT) has implemented Construction Information Modelling/Management (CIM) in each phase of life cycle of construction. In their previous research studies, the authors endeavored to improve point cloud data deployment by editing point cloud data and analyzing its attributes. In this study, the authors have proposed the utilization of attributed point cloud data and described its significance using numerous construction projects as case studies. Through applications of the attributed point cloud data in design, construction, and maintenance phases of life cycle of construction, distinct possibilities of point cloud data usage are recognized.
