VoxRasterLAS

This library rasterises and voxelises 3D point clouds. It takes a laspy object as input and performs feature extraction.

Overview

This library rasterises and voxelises laspy objects, performing feature extraction at the raster and voxel level, respectively. To speed up the process, operations are performed using GPUs with the Numba library.

Voxelisation

Takes a laspy object and return a Voxels object which contains the following properties:
