The LP360 Add Files dialog is the interface used for opening LAS Files, Raster Files, Feature Layers, Photo Layers, and Cloud LAS Layers. There is also an option to convert a DEM raster into a LAS layer (DEM to LAS).
In the Add Files dialog on the Project tab, you can select one or more files to add using the button
, or select one (or more) folders to add the files from using the
button
.
The selected files will be grouped into layers, depending on certain criteria, so that only compatible LAS files will be on a single layer. Criteria required for compatibility include:
-
The coordinate system (when available)
-
LAS or LAZ format version
-
Point Data Record Format (PDRF)
-
GPS Time format
LAS files must have these 4 criteria in common to be considered compatible and grouped into the same layer. LP360 will create as many layers as necessary to represent each file selected to be opened.
You can add multiple layer types (LAS, Raster, Feature, and/or Photo) at one time on the Add Files dialog.
The file list displays detailed information in columns for every file selected to be added. This information is extracted from the file header. You can click the columns to sort the data and then see which files are compatible (based on the criteria listed above). By default, only basic information columns are displayed, but you can click the Show Advanced Column button above the window to display much more information.
See Add LAS Files File List for more information about the LAS file information displayed in this dialog.
