Point density: Average number of recorded points per square meter within an analysis unit (in the case of multiple echoes per pulse only the points defined by the last echo have to be considered). If the strip overlap is smaller than 50% or in the case of crosswise strips that do not cover the whole analysis unit, the point density has to be estimated with the help of the points of the singular cover. Areas with data holes have to be excluded from the computation and have to be considered in a different way.

One other question I was wondering about is the difference between the 16bit and 32bit counters for the pulse density. When would they be used rather than just the 8bit counter?
