Doug, Markus,

Thanks for the interesting discussion,

Yes at the moment, my workflow is:

ls ID_*.las > las_list.txt
lasmerge -i las_list.txt -o out.las
v.in.lidar in=out.las out=lidar -trb

Works very well. I was just wondering how difficult it would be to use
wildcards directly in the input=... option. Obviously it requires some
significant amount of work.

Indeed, not an issue for me (unfortunately!),

I usually never build the topology of my LiDAR point clouds. Should I do it?

Cheers,
