I pulled the latest libLas source code from subversion and I am having problems building it under Visual Studio 2005.

DataStream.hpp is looking for a SpatialIndex.h but that file does not seem to be in the source tree. I did find two in geos but liblas does not build if I include that path either.

Is there a file that has not been checked in yet?


SpatialIndex.h is the main header for libspatialindex. None of the indexing stuff should be being built, but I see the default nmake.opt has SPATIALINDEX_HOME defined. You should comment that out.

I would not that the indexing stuff is not production code and in constant flux. I will send a notice to the list once it stabilizes. If there are any individuals who would like to contribute to its development, please contact me privately. The concept with the indexing is to allow the generation and storage of an rtree spatial index to support spatial queries of the LAS file. This index will be able to be stored alongside the LAS as separate files (much like the shx file of shapefile fame), inside the LAS file as zlib-compressed VLRs (which still will bloat up the file sizes quite a bit), and an in- memory index that will be generated for certain query operations.

PS, I have cc'd the mailing list where these types of queries should be asked.
