It is our pleasure to announce the first official release of libLAS. libLAS is a C/C++ library for reading and writing ASPRS LAS version 1.0 and 1.1 data. LAS-formatted data is heavily used in LiDAR processing operations, and the LAS format is a sequential binary format used to store data from sensors and as intermediate processing storage by some applications. libLAS provides multiple programming APIs (.NET, Python, C/C++) and commandline utilities for manipulating, creating, or reading LAS data. libLAS is known to work on all editions of MSVC 7.1+ and GCC 4.1+ on big- and little-endian architectures. Windows binaries are provided via OSGeo4W and a zip package, and an autoconf-based source package can be used to build the software on various *nix platforms.
