NAME
lasblock - pre-process LAS files into blocks
SYNOPSIS
lasblock [-h | [-c arg] [-p arg] -i arg [-o arg] [-v] ]
DESCRIPTION
lasblock displays LAS file details with optional output filters. While lasblock can do a few simple operations like updating header information, more drastic changes, like removing points or altering values, will require las2las(1).
OPTIONS
- FC-hF[0], FC--helpF[0]
-
Produce help message
- FC-cF[0] arg, FC--capacityF[0] arg
-
Number of points to nominally put into each block (note that this number will not be exact). Default: 3000
- FC-pF[0] arg, FC--precisionF[0] arg
-
Number of decimal points to write for each bbox. Default: 8
- FC-iF[0] arg, FC--inputF[0] arg
-
input LAS file
- FC-oF[0] arg, FC--outputF[0] arg
-
The output .kdx file (defaults to input filename + .kdx)
- FC-vF[0], FC--verboseF[0]
-
Verbose message output
EXAMPLE
Block a file, and write out blocks with 6 decimals of precision with a nominal capacity of 3000 points per block:
FC
lasblock -c 3001 -p 6 myfile.las
F[0]
Note. If no capacity is specified with FC-cF[0], FC10000F[0] is assumed.
Note. lasblock will always write out a FCmyfile.las.kdxF[0] file name by default, but you can override the output name with a FC-oF[0] command-line switch.
