What is LumiDB
LumiDB is a platform for exploring and working with massive 3D point cloud datasets directly in the browser. It eliminates the need for manual file merging, filtering, optimization, or heavy desktop applications. LumiDB offers scalable access, visualization, and export to external tools.
At its core, LumiDB is a database system purpose-built for point cloud data, with full API access for integrating and managing datasets. This makes it a true single source of truth—organizations can store all their data in one place and connect their tools directly to it.
Who it's for
LumiDB is built for professionals and organizations working with geospatial and 3D data:
Surveying and mapping teams
Urban planning and infrastructure projects
Groups needing fast, collaborative access to point clouds
Developers building applications on top of point cloud data
Why it exists
Traditional point cloud tools rely on downloading large files, local processing, and manual merging before analysis. The process is slow, resource-intensive, and difficult to share.
LumiDB solves this by progressively streaming point clouds to the browser and treating all files as a unified dataset. This enables users to:
Explore large areas instantly
Filter and refine data for analysis
Export subsets in standard formats for further use
Share views or clipped datasets with colleagues easily
