Description : A Python module to use the ASPRS LiDAR data translation library
This is the python binding for the libLAS library. LibLAS is a C/C++
library for reading and writing ASPRS LAS versions 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2
data. The LAS format is a sequential binary format used to store
data from sensors and as intermediate processing storage by some
LiDAR-related applications. LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) is
an optical remote sensing technology that measures properties of
scattered light to find range and/or other information of a distant
target. The prevalent method to determine distance to an object or
surface is to use laser pulses.
