LAS/LAZ library for C#

laszip.net

The LASzip LiDAR compressor packaged as a simple stand-alone assembly for easy inclusion of compression and decompression functionality into other software. It compresses LAS files into much more compact LAZ files and vice versa. The resulting files are around 7 - 20 percent of their original size.

To get the original LASzip just download the LAStools distribution which contains the LASlib as well as the LASzip sources together with the binaries of the popular LAStools software and some small example LAZ files.

To get the newest version of the C# port of the LASzip library, goto: https://github.com/shintadono/laszip.net

ATTENTION: This port is not a complete port of the LASzip library. It does not contain the example provided in it (but has some examples off it's own), and you can't create version 1 LAZ files, while reading version 1 is still possible.
