@jonni_walker 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 @pointcloudpipe]

PDAL Python bindings 3.2.0 have been released. Grab them from https://t.co/G08hYjHt2e 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.

https://t.co/2mMl13KN3n 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. https://t.co/Lk0OJ3d5ls It includes a fix for a major memory leak with LAZ files, remote https://t.co/yq8z4QDkCa writing support, and a LAS SRS overwriting convenience. Get your binary copy from @condaforge or build it yourself if that's your way.

[PDAL @pointcloudpipe]

PDAL 2.4.1 released. A small fix for making sure https://t.co/yq8z4QDkCa files are as small as possible, and some UTF filename support for the upcoming @qgis release were the items that necessitated this maintenance release.

Listen to me and @StevenFeldman on this week's @geomob podcast https://t.co/KhN5hg99gS 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. https://t.co/08sZ6z33W4

Here's a notebook showing how to use https://t.co/yq8z4QDkCa and PDAL to incrementally build up pipelines, use them to rasterize different dimensions, and display them. https://t.co/M7aJc8iPj1

@ultrazool @UOAutzen Max Sampson from Hobu spent a lot of time in CloudCompare manually labeling it all.

[PDAL @pointcloudpipe]

Data from @uoautzen is a Stanford bunny of #lidar data. Max Sampson from Hobu, Inc. recently labeled all 10 million points with 15 classifications for ML testing and training activities. You can see it online at https://t.co/6N2iDYa2n7

[PDAL @pointcloudpipe]

PDAL 2.4.0 is released. It includes https://t.co/yq8z4QDkCa 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 https://t.co/pJQl6k5rJe

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

[@[email protected] @howardbutler]

I’ve was asked here why we developed https://t.co/plxfNAJZaG, 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.

[PDAL @pointcloudpipe]

@pointcloudpipe and many other softwares and techniques would not have been possible without Martin’s contributions.

[@[email protected] @howardbutler]

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
