Cloud compare 2.11 ( the version that is installed by default on Ubuntu 20.04 with snap ) doesn't support PCD files with double data type. However the documentation stipulates that the 2.12 version should support it and should correctly interpret the "viewpoint" field as well, but I couldn't load the point clouds in double format converted by the transformer payload node ( https://github.com/ori-drs/vilens/blob/master/vilens_slam/vilens_slam/src/gnss/transform_payload_frames.cpp ).
I could spend more time checking that the transformer payload node correctly write PCD files with double datatype.
Because of this limitation of cloudcompare, PLY files with double datatype should be preferred. I will try to load them in director
