LiDAR histogram

This tool creates a histogram for the attributes of a LiDAR (LAS) file, including elevation, intensity, and scan angle. The user must input the name of a LiDAR LAS file (*.las), the attribute name (Elevation, Intensity, or Scan Angle) on which the analysis will be performed, and the number of histogram bins.

Scripting:

The following is an example of a Python script using this tool:

wd = pluginHost.getWorkingDirectory()
# The tool accepts LAS files
inputFile = wd + "input.las"
attribute = "Elevation"
bins = "10"
args = [inputFile, attribute, bins]
pluginHost.runPlugin("LidarHistogram", args, False)

This is a Groovy script also using this tool:

def wd = pluginHost.getWorkingDirectory()
// The tool accepts LAS files
def inputFile = wd + "input.las"
def attribute = "Intensity"
def bins = "10"
String[] args = [inputFile, attribute, bins]
pluginHost.runPlugin("LidarHistogram", args, false)
