What PLY and GLTF files are
PLY
PLY (Polygon File Format, also known as the Stanford Triangle Format) was created at Stanford University in the 1990s to store data from 3D scanners. Besides vertices and faces it can hold per-vertex colors, normals and other values in text or binary form, which makes it popular for 3D scans and point clouds.
GLTF
glTF (GL Transmission Format) is an open 3D format from the Khronos Group, often called the JPEG of 3D. A .gltf file describes the scene in JSON and can point to separate binary and texture files, and it loads quickly in web viewers and game engines with support for realistic PBR materials and animation.
