What is an HPL30 file?

HPL30 files mostly belong to Leica Cyclone 3DR. HPL30 files are project archives used to store 3D scanning data. They are built using the ZIP format so that the file contains several internal components.
This file format is identified as a Hilti Project File and is designed to hold data such as:
  • 3D point cloud information
  • Scan settings and registration parameters
  • Project metadata for laser scanning sessions
  • The files are closely linked with Leica systems like Leica Cyclone 3DR and Leica Cyclone REGISTER 360. These applications process and visualize the registered point clouds and related scan data.
    FilExt.com note: If you have an HPL30 file, you can open it using the appropriate Leica Cyclone software. Advanced users may also extract the ZIP contents with generic archiving tools to view the internal structure, although interpreting the data requires the proper scanning software.

    How do you open HPL30 files?

    You need a suitable software like Leica Cyclone 3DR to open an HPL30 file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your HPL30 file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a HPL30 file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

    Programs that open and convert HPL30 files:

    1. Leica Cyclone 3DR
      See the previous paragraphs to learn more about the main application. HPL30 files are often referred to as Leica Cyclone 3DR data files because this type of file is primarily created or used by this software.
    2. Leica Geosystems Cyclone 3DR
      A *.HPL30 file is a Hilti Project File used by Leica Geosystems Cyclone 3DR, a point cloud processing software. It stores 3D point cloud data, likely captured using Hilti's 3D scanning devices, in a compressed ZIP format. This data is used for tasks such as creating as-built documentation, performing quality control, and generating Building Information Models (BIMs). The *.HPL30 file format facilitates the seamless transfer of rich 3D data between Hilti's scanning hardware and Leica Cyclone's powerful processing software. This integration streamlines workflows for professionals in architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC), allowing them to efficiently manage and analyze complex 3D datasets. This file format is classified as 3D Point Cloud Data.
