Import several LAS-Files at once?
« on: March 13, 2019, 02:07:15 PM »
Hello,

I have around 1000 LAS-Files coming from airborne laserscanning.
I would like to import them into Agisoft to do further analysis.

But when I create a chunk and hit "Import Points" I can only choose one single file to import. Is there way to import all the files at once?

I am using Photoscan Professional Version 1.4.0

Thank you in advance
foxx1

Hello foxx1,

Which actions/operations you wish to apply to the imported clouds?

Foxx1,

If you can only import a single file, just use LAStools to merge them all into one LAS file.
You can download LAStools here: https://rapidlasso.com/lastools/

That's and old post but I am coming up with same issue wanting to import several point clouds in las format .
Oance imported I merge them and generate DEM. I like the way Metashape interpolates DEM

Hi, Stefan!

It is possible to select multiple point cloud files to import since 2.0.0 version.
