FJD Trion Model Permanent Base Version gives you the core functions for point cloud processing: mapping, colourisation, visual inspection and support for universal formats. A permanent licence (not a subscription) that covers the most common workflows for anyone just starting out with LiDAR data.
Frequently asked questions
Is the base version enough for most projects?
Yes, for basic point cloud processing, mapping and colourisation the base version covers most needs. Specialised functions such as forestry analysis, advanced drawing or section analysis require add-on modules.
Is it a subscription or a one-off purchase?
Permanent licence – a one-off purchase with no recurring fee, unlike some competing systems that require annual licences.
Can I upgrade to the Pro version later?
Yes, the Pro version and the modules (Forestry, Drawing, Section Analysis) are bought and added separately when the need arises – you don't need to know everything you will need already at the first purchase.
Is a dongle key needed for the base version?
Yes, the licence is tied to a physical dongle key, sold separately, which is required to activate the software on your computer.
Does the base version work with data from both the S2 and the P2?
Yes, the software handles point cloud data from the entire FJD Trion range regardless of which scanner collected the data.
