OGR could perhaps support it, but it is really libLAS job and I don't think it would be wise to reimplement what it does... I'm not sure if a OGR driver using libLAS would make sense, and it might be difficult for technical reasons, liblas depending - optionnaly - itself on GDAL for SRS support. Anyway, there's a las2ogr utility in liblas to make the bridge. If you have problems, you'd better report them to liblas mailing list. > > Yours, Stefan > _______________________________________________ > gdal-dev mailing list > gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org > http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev _______________________________________________ gdal-dev mailing list gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev
