This video demonstrates how to sample RGB values from an orthophoto to visualise a point cloud dataset with realistic colours. The procedure uses LAStools to sample the colours and Entwine to convert to the Potree format. We then visualise the point cloud using the Qgis2threejs plugin.
Datasets: 

AHN3 downloaded from PDOK (https://downloads.pdok.nl/ahn3-downloadpage/)
RGB orthophoto 25 cm downloaded using PDOK Services Plugin
