### Steps ###

1. Click ***File > [Add Data](../ToolReference/ProjectTools/AddData.md)*** to open data. You can import point clouds ([***.LiData**](../Appendix/LiData.md), \*.las, \*.laz, \*.txt, \*.asc, \*.neu, \*.xyz, \*.pts, \*.csv. \*.ply), rasters (\*.tif, \*.jpg), vectors (\*.shp), tables (\*.csv) and models (**[\*.LiModel](../Appendix/LiModel.md)**, **[\*.LiTin](../Appendix/LiTin.md)**, \*.osgb, \*.ive, \*.desc, *.obj) into LiDAR360. The point cloud data will be converted into LiData file for the first time been added, it is the customized file format for massive point cloud data visualization and processing.
2. Ten display modes for point clouds are provided in LiDAR360: Display by Elevation, Display by Intensity, Display by Classification, Display by RGB, Display by Return Number, Display by GPS Time, Display by Blend, Display by Tree ID, Display by Mix and Display by EDL. EDL can be used with other display modes. Refer to [**Color Tools**](../ToolReference/ColorTools/Index.md).
