txt2las.exe -parse xyz?RGB

[Rohan Waghmode]

Hello people,

I been looking into parsing the .txt file using txt2las.exe  But the format seems lit odd. I would like to know how can i parse this data?

Lets consider first line in this data,

[-118047.270, 34495.970, 23.268, 0, 24, 35, 32]

[x, y, z, ?, R, G, B]

I am not able to figure out what this data is. Can anyone help me understand?

For reference this is list of entries we can check.

Hi Rohan,

its hard to tell what data you have on this column, but you can easy skip this column using [s].

So you could use -parse xyzsRGB

Best,

This is also a great example of why you need metadata.

Wild guess, I would try intensity and see if you get a grayscale image that makes sense.   With RGB that might be worth much, so ignoring it is also a reasonable step.
