easyidp.pointcloud.write_laz#

easyidp.pointcloud.write_laz(laz_path, points, colors, normals=None, offset=array([0., 0., 0.]), decimal=5)#

Save point cloud to laz format

Parameters:

laz_path (str) – the output point cloud file.
points (ndarray) – the nx3 numpy ndarray of point XYZ info
colors (ndarray) – the nx3 numpy ndarray of point RGB info, dtype=np.uint8
normals (ndarray, optional) – the nx3 numpy ndarray of point normal info, by default None
offset (3x1 ndarray, optional) – The offset value defined in the laz file header, by default np.array([0., 0., 0.])
decimal (int, optional) – The decimal for the point value precision, by default 5

Example

Prepare data:

>>> import easyidp as idp
>>> test_data = idp.data.TestData()

>>> write_points = np.asarray([[-1.9083118, -1.7775583,  -0.77878  ],
...                            [-1.9082794, -1.7772741,  -0.7802601],

>>> write_colors = np.asarray([[  0,   0,   0],
...                            [  0,   0,   0],
...                            [  0,   0,   0],
...                            [192,  64, 128],
...                            [ 92,  88,  83],
...                            [ 64,  64,  64]], dtype=np.uint8)
>>> write_normals = np.asarray([[-0.03287353,  0.36604664,  0.9300157 ],
...                             [ 0.08860216,  0.07439037,  0.9932853 ],

...                             [ 0.4548034 , -0.15576138,  0.876865  ],
...                             [ 0.4550802 , -0.29450312,  0.8403392 ],
...                             [ 0.32758632,  0.27255052,  0.9046565 ]], dtype=np.float64)

Use this function:

>>> idp.pointcloud.write_laz(r"path/to/point_cloud.laz", write_points, write_colors, write_normals)

Notes

Caution

The EasyIDP saved the las file with Las version=1.2
