R package to read and write .las and .laz binary files used to store LiDAR data.

rlas relies on a modified version of LASlib and LASzip that were modified to be compatible with R. The library can therefore be compiled into R without any complaints from R CMD check. It enables R users to read and write binary files commonly used to store LiDAR data. LAS version 1.0 to 1.4 are supported.

library(rlas)
lasdata   <- read.las("<myfile.las>")
lasheader <- read.lasheader("<myfile.las>")

rlas contains code written by both Jean-Romain Roussel and Martin Isenburg. The latter is included for technical reasons. Details below.

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
