Hi Martin, great news: I’m craving for such an enhancement! Reading the description of the QEP I didn’t see great considerations about LAS & LASlib. >From my experience, LAS format is almost a standard for ALS LiDAR data sharing >and, even if LAZ is still not well known, the size can be shrinked to 1/10 >thanks to it. It has a 2D index that can be easily created through the open >source tools of LAStools and it’s definitely well exploited using the >streaming filters provided by LASlib (at least in IO operations). For what >concerns the visualization, >here<https://github.com/Jean-Romain/PointCloudViewer> you can find how it has >been solved for the R language (horrible for memory handling) making use of >OpenGL.
BTW, I’m just a user and not a programmer…just curious why the above choices :) All the best and keep up the great work!
