Function read_las 

Source
pub fn read_las(path: &Path) -> Result<PointCloud, IoError>
Expand description

Reads a cloud from LAS/LAZ.

§Origin

LAS is almost always georeferenced: coordinates are UTM or a similar projection with values around a million metres. The origin is placed at the centre of the bounding box, since otherwise f32 storage would destroy millimetres before the first computation.

§Attributes

Intensity is always carried over; colour is carried when the point format has it.
