How can I create an octree from a point cloud without raytracing?

I have a point cloud generated from the registration of several RGB-D observations. I'd like to create an octree of just occupancy data from it (specifically, an octomap::OcTree object), to pass to MoveIt for collision avoidance. I want to skip doing any raytracing, and just put occupied voxels where the points occur--besides being faster, there's no single viewpoint to cast rays from, since the cloud comprises several observations. Is there a function for this in the Octomap API?

Havn't used the octomap api before, but PCL has an octree implementation. Take a look at the general api and occupancy api.

Yup, I'm familiar with PCL. Since MoveIt takes an octomap::OcTree as input, what I'd really like is the PCL setOccupiedVoxelsAtPointsFromCloud function on an octomap::OcTree object. I might have to settle for building a PCL octree and then iterating over its leaves and inserting them with updateNode.
