Open PLY files — free, in your browser

PLY (Polygon File Format) often comes from 3D scanners and photogrammetry: a model or point cloud, often with a colour per point.

With the free downloadlink viewer you open a .ply file directly in your browser. Nothing is installed, and without an account nothing is uploaded either — when you are logged in, the viewer keeps your file in My files.

What the viewer does with PLY files

You rotate, zoom and pan the model, hide parts, measure distances with snapping to corners and edges, and make a section.

Good to know

Editing is not possible in the viewer: you view and measure the model.

How it works

  1. Click Open your PLY file above.
  2. Drag your .ply file into the window, or click to choose it.
  3. View it directly in your browser.
