28.1.13. Point Cloud Data Management

NEW in 3.32

Nota

These algorithms are only available if QGIS uses the PDAL library version 2.5.0 or newer.

28.1.13.1. Assign projection

Assigns a Coordinate Reference System to a point cloud layer, if it is missing or wrong. A new layer is created.

OUTPUT

[point cloud]

Output point cloud layer with a new CRS. Currently supported formats are .LAS, .LAZ, .COPC.LAZ and .VPC.

Python code

Algorithm ID: pdal:assignprojection

import processing
processing.run("algorithm_id", {parameter_dictionary})

The algorithm id is displayed when you hover over the algorithm in the Processing Toolbox. The parameter dictionary provides the parameter NAMEs and values. See Usando os algoritmos do processamento a partir da consola for details on how to run processing algorithms from the Python console.

28.1.13.2. Build virtual point cloud (VPC)

Creates a virtual point cloud (VPC) from input point cloud data.

If you leave the optional parameters unchecked, the VPC file will be built very quickly as the algorithm will only read metadata of input files. With any of the optional parameters set, the algorithm will read all points which can take some time.

BOUNDARY

[boolean]

Default: False

Build overview point cloud

OVERVIEW

[boolean]

Default: False

Generates a single “thinned” point cloud of all the input data (using only every 1000th point from original data).

The overview point cloud will be created next to the VPC file - for example, for mydata.vpc, the overview point cloud would be named mydata-overview.copc.laz.
