OPTIONS

ts2las options:

FC-hF[0], FC--helpF[0]

Produce help message

FC-iF[0] arg, FC--inputF[0] arg

input TerraSolid .bin file

FC-vF[0], FC--verboseF[0]

Verbose message output

Filtering options:

FC-eF[0] arg, FC--extentF[0] arg

Extent window that points must fall within to keep. Use a comma-separated or quoted, space-separated list, for example, FC-e minx, miny, maxx, maxyF[0] or FC-e minx, miny, minz, maxx, maxy, maxzF[0] FC-e "minx miny minz maxx maxy maxz"F[0]

FC--minxF[0] arg

Extent must be greater than or equal to minx to be kept. FC--minx 1234.0F[0]
