R package to read and write .las and .laz binary files used to store LiDAR data.

This package is used by the lidR package and is not intended to be used by regular users. Everything you need is in the lidR package with a high-level front end. Only package developers who would like to build something new from a low-level API might be interested in rlas.

rlas relies on a modified version of LASlib and LASzip that were modified to be compatible with R. The library can therefore be compiled into R without any complaints from R CMD check. It enables R users to read and write binary files commonly used to store LiDAR data. LAS/LAZ version 1.0 to 1.4 are supported.

library(rlas)
lasdata   <- read.las("<myfile.las>")
lasheader <- read.lasheader("<myfile.las>")
