Final v.2.0.0 release, leaving the "preview" state. In addition to bugfixes, it introduces the following major changes:

  • Local CRS: point coordinates are now expressed relative to a local CRS with Z-axis normal to the WGS84 ellipsoid, which enables stylings based on point elevation referred to a zenithal Z axis (see issue 47).
  • Autodetect CRS: add capability to automatically extract GeoTIFF and WKT metadata from LAS VLRs and EVLRs and autodetect the CRS, if any is defined in the LAS files. This also required completely rewriting from the ground up the logic that reads LAS files, fixing issue 49.
  • Add Mutators: Introduce the concept of Mutators so that it is possible to programmatically manipulate or drop points on the fly as they are read.
  • Add Subsampler feature: randomly subsample the point cloud to thin down the density
