About Point Cloud Format

I've been searching point cloud file format.

First of all. PTS File Format (http://labs.blogs.com/its_alive_in_the_lab/2010/08/updated-point-cloud-for-3ds-max-now-available.html).
I found it on Autodesk Lab. I am not sure It's for 3dsmax?
This file format has number of points, point position(x y z), intensity value of point and point color.
It can convert ascii to binary. and It use kdTree for PointCloud.
  • Number of points
  • X Y Z Intensity value R G B
