Just a quick note: > In this version, I have added a Laszip executable in the repo It seems @evetion has made https://github.com/evetion/LazIO.jl for laz support, so presumably you should...

There's also some mention of incorporating scaling/offset into the type at https://github.com/visr/LasIO.jl/issues/4. Ideally I think the las positions should includes the affine transformation in their type. You might be able...

Thinking more about this, I suspect we don't need to go inventing new things because the pieces already exist in `CoordinateTransformations` and `MappedArrays`: ```julia julia> points_int32 = SVector{3,Int32}[(1,2,3), (4,5,6)] 2-element...

I believe with `MappedArrays` we can simply map `RawLasPoint` (fictional name) to `LasPoint`, and have `LasPoint` contain a `SVector{3,Float64}` in the correct geospatial coordinate system. I don't think any of...

Yeah I found RowTables.jl as well, but it doesn't look applicable. I also asked on slack, but to no avail so I think you'd have to build a new table...

I'm really happy to have this package, but the API, I think, could definitely be refined a bit. Perhaps it's worth considering a simultaneous first release of: * Version 0.0.1,...
