Hi there,<br>
<br>
a few questions:<br>
<br>
- I would like to see liblas 1.0 packaged for Debian. Over at the<br>
DebianGIS project* we can host and help develop the build rules in our<br>
SVN, and give you access to the brains a number of experienced Debian<br>
developers, but before we can do that a question about the license..<br>
[*] <a href="http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGis" target="_blank">http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGis</a><br>
<br>
- your LICENSE.txt looks fine, but the original lastools license does not.<br>
Specifically it lacks any permission to use, modify, or redistribute the<br>
code. All it says is that they hope it will be useful. Is there an email<br>
archived somewhere by Martin Isenburg which states the code is BSD?<br>
Without that the vetting crew at Debian will immediately cry foul.</blockquote><div><br>Before work here in liblas project i ask directly to Martin Isenburg by private mail i want implement a lidar library. I believe Isenburg code is public domain or that i understood. he said me i could do what i would want with his code. After that i find the liblas team and forget create my own lidar library.<br>

<br>
- Any news or ideas on OGR integration?</blockquote><div>Hoby and mateus (liblas main developers) i believe they work directly in that libraries and they plan add GDAL support to liblas. <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>
<br>
- My current plans for liblas is to use las2txt to pipe data directly<br>
into the GRASS GIS r.in.xyz module*, I think that's a trivial task. So<br>
far that module has worked very well for very large ascii xyz datasets<br>
(92GB LIDAR data file, 2.4 billion data points; statistically binned<br>
raster surface in 4.5hrs) Now folks ask to use it directly with LAS<br>
data....<br>

I believe implementation of liblas in grass is a task of GRASS developers not the debian gis developers (only my opinion). <br>
<br>.<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><br>

<br>
thanks for any ideas,<br>
