Point cloud in state plane coordinates

SketchUp
1

I have an las file in state plane coordinates I brought in to sketchup to do some modeling. I’ve uploaded my model into a 3d viewer in trimble connect in order to show it off compared to the point cloud but it seems like sketchup didn’t hold the coordinates or origin of the point cloud so they don’t line up outside of sketchup.

Is there a way to start a sketchup project in a state plane projection or adjust the origin so that the coordinates line up?

Why don’t you move the point cloud in Trimble Connect to match the SketchUp model?

I’d like for it to be in state plane so I can load it into site vision for an AR demonstration as well. So ideally I’d like to shift the model to the point cloud but that is an option also.
