Just like with screenshots, the files should be logically split to ensure an efficient transfer.<\/p>\n<h4><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload size-full wp-image-29181 aligncenter\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27293%27%20height%3D%27274%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20293%20274%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27293%27%20height%3D%27274%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/vmts.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Punktwolken-Komprimieren.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"293\" height=\"274\" \/><\/h4>\n<h4 data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"49\"><strong data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"47\">Why is compression and splitting important?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p data-start=\"51\" data-end=\"262\">If we upload 100 TB as a single file, the upload will take around 2 days, as only one session is used. However, if an error occurs, the entire process is interrupted, and the upload must start over from scratch.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"264\" data-end=\"523\">By compressing and splitting the files into smaller parts, the total size can be reduced by up to 60%. Additionally, this allows us to upload multiple files simultaneously\u2014such as through 10 active FTP sessions at once\u2014making the upload up to 10 times faster.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"525\" data-end=\"606\">Even with WeTransfer, the transfer becomes much faster, and errors are minimized.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"608\" data-end=\"688\" data-is-last-node=\"\"><strong data-start=\"608\" data-end=\"623\">Alternative<\/strong>: Free software like 7-Zip can be used for efficient compression.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload size-full wp-image-29185 aligncenter\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27338%27%20height%3D%27309%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20338%20309%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27338%27%20height%3D%27309%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/vmts.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/7zip.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"338\" height=\"309\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sending point clouds: Compression and efficient file upload\/download For all point cloud formats, it is essential to use compression (RAR, ZIP, or 7z) to significantly reduce the file size.
