I'm trying to use ArcScene to display a Terrestrial Lidar Dataset  I have. The dataset includes a landscape as well as a cave system beneath the landscape. 

I'm looking for any examples of Terrestrial Lidar data use within ArcScene or ArcGIS online in general. I have many datasets and it would be great to find a way to display them using the ArcGIS online platform. 

*I'm aware I can put the point cloud directly in an ArcScene, but the amount of thinning I have to do in order to display the dataset defeats the purpose of having a dataset with this much detail (point spacing in Lidar datasets range from 5cm to .25cm.

Thanks, 

Ben

Have you taken a look at Scene Viewer and using scene layer packages to hosted point cloud scene layers in ArcGIS Online? You can also use this scene layer in 3D WAB and Template applications.
