From hobu.inc at gmail.com Fri Oct 17 19:00:35 2008 From: hobu.inc at gmail.com (Howard Butler) Date: Fri, 17 Oct 2008 12:00:35 -0500 Subject: [Freegis-list] Announcing the release of libLAS 1.0.0 Message-ID: It is our pleasure to announce the first official release of libLAS. libLAS is a C/C++ library for reading and writing ASPRS LAS version 1.0 and 1.1 data. LAS-formatted data is heavily used in LiDAR processing operations, and the LAS format is a sequential binary format used to store data from sensors and as intermediate processing storage by some applications. libLAS provides multiple programming APIs (.NET, Python, C/C++) and commandline utilities for manipulating, creating, or reading LAS data. libLAS is known to work on all editions of MSVC 7.1+ and GCC 4.1+ on big- and little-endian architectures. Windows binaries are provided via OSGeo4W and a zip package, and an autoconf-based source package can be used to build the software on various *nix platforms. Please visit http://liblas.org/wiki/1.0.0 to obtain the current release or to http://liblas.org/wiki/Releases to find out more information about past unofficial releases.

The webpage is missing las2ogr description. Maciej, You are right. This is because we consider las2ogr as a semi-official or semi-stable tool. Simply, it needs some work yet. Anyway, I will try to prepare a short manual for this tool.

Since I've started complaining - http://liblas.org/browser/trunk/doc/las2txt.txt#usage mentions 't' entry, yet it's missing from http://liblas.org/browser/trunk/doc/las2txt.txt#supported-entries. Same the las2txt --help. Cheers! Maciek -- Maciej Sieczka www.sieczka.org
