Hello Marica,
It is my understanding that you created a normal distributions transform (NDT) map (i.e., “pcmapndt” object) from the original point cloud map (i.e., “pointCloud” object) and then you selected a submap from the created NDT map by using “selectSubmap” function. You want to extract “pointCloud” object from this selected submap.
If original point cloud map is known, you may refer the following example for extracting “pointCloud” object from a selected submap:
% Create an NDT map from a point cloud map.
% ptCloudMap is point cloud map of "pointCloud" object
ndtMap = pcmapndt(ptCloudMap,voxelSize);
% Select submap from NDT map
ndtMap = selectSubmap(ndtMap, center, sz);
% Extracting point cloud from the submap, if original point cloud map, i.e. ptCloudMap is known.
roi = ndtMap.SelectedSubmap;
indices = findPointsInROI(ptCloudMap, roi);
ptCloud = select (ptCloudMap, indices, 'OutputSize', 'full');
%ptCloud is the required point cloud
