Thanks!
An opportunity for a warm shoot-out to @Mapbox as well as all OSS libraries and standards we use to store and retrieve our 3D scans on our platform (#potree from @m_schuetz, @CesiumJS #3Dtiles, @pointcloudpipe from @howardbutler team)
PDAL Python bindings 3.2.0 have been released. Grab them from pypi.org/project/pdal/ or wait a few hours to get them from @condaforge. The hot new features it the ability to universally fetch the SRS of a pipeline. 🔥
If you're at #FOSS4G next week, make sure to visit with @pointcloudpipe team members @michael_smith, @connor2n2o, @chambbj, and @howardbutler and see Michael give "State of PDAL" in the Verde room at 4:45 on Thursday.
pdal.io has been updated today to use @readthedocs instead of our homespun documentation builds. The most important improvement as a result is multi-version docs. Thanks to the RTD team for providing such an awesome service for projects such as @pointcloudpipe.
PDAL 2.4.3 has been released. github.com/PDAL/PDAL/release… It includes a fix for a major memory leak with LAZ files, remote COPC.io writing support, and a LAS SRS overwriting convenience. Get your binary copy from @condaforge or build it yourself if that's your way.
More information about the release can be found on the release page at github.com/PDAL/PDAL/release…

Listen to me and @StevenFeldman on this week's @geomob podcast thegeomob.com/podcast/episod… if you want to learn more about @pointcloudpipe, how @GdalOrg raised resources from its sponsors, and how it developed its sponsorship program with @NumFOCUS.
PDAL is not a workflow engine for processing point cloud data. PDAL is a library *for making* point cloud processing workflow engines. lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/pd…

Here's a notebook showing how to use COPC.io and PDAL to incrementally build up pipelines, use them to rasterize different dimensions, and display them. gist.github.com/hobu/37b3b21…
PDAL 2.4.0 is released. It includes COPC.io read and write support, time queries in @tiledb, comment support in JSON pipelines, and embedded always-on LAZ support due to LASzip Apache relicensing. Release notes at github.com/PDAL/PDAL/release…

Published after three years of the original work that generated pdaltools #qgis plugin when #pdal was not yet integrated in qgis. FYI @pointcloudpipe. Remembering @rapidlasso

I’ve was asked here why we developed COPC.io, and the reason is without open data formats and specifications, there is no open source software. @LAStools and #laszipforever are only viable because of @ASPRSorg LAS.
Congratulation @LAStools on winning the 2022 @GeoWeekNews Outstanding Personal Achievement in LiDAR Award. Much deserved and much missed. I’m so glad @Sista1975 could come to accept it for @rapidlasso. #laszipforever
@pointcloudpipe and many other softwares and techniques would not have been possible without Martin’s contributions.

Are you a grad student who needs lidar from remote locales to help complete your research? Here's an opportunity to get your research area inundated with lasers.
One more week to submit Student Seed Proposals! Applications are now due on Monday, January 10. #lidar
