A Julia package for reading and writing LAS data. LAS is a public file format for saving and loading 3D point cloud data, and its source repository can be found here. This package currently supports LAS specifications 1.1-1.4 (see here for the 1.4 spec.)

Some key features included in this package are:

  • High-level functions for reading and writing LAS data in tabular formats using TypedTables.jl
  • Automatic detection of LAS point formats from data
  • Reading and writing Julia-native structs as Variable Length Records (VLRs) and Extended Variable Length Records (EVLRs)
  • Easy manipulation of file header properties

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. Simply run:

using Pkg
Pkg.add("git@github.com:fugro-oss/LASDatasets.jl.git")
using LASDatasets

And you're ready to go!
