Description: Airborne LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) interface for
        data manipulation and visualization. Read/write 'las' and 'laz'
        files, computation of metrics in area based approach, point
        filtering, artificial point reduction, classification from
        geographic data, normalization, individual tree segmentation
        and other manipulations.
