Or, at least adding a pc_files ( file_id, file_name ) table and a file_id column to the target pointcloud table. </div><div id="bloop_customfont" style="font-family:Helvetica,Arial;font-size:13px; color: rgba(0,0,0,1.0); margin: 0px; line-height: auto;">P </div> <br><p style="color:#000;">On October 5, 2015 at 5:17:43 AM, Andrew Bell (<a href="mailto:andrew.bell.ia@gmail.com">andrew.bell.ia@gmail.com</a>) wrote:</p> <blockquote type="cite" class="clean_bq"><span><div><div></div><div>

<div>Considering an earlier discussion about mimicking the
behaviour of GDAL in PDAL (<a href="http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/pdal/2015-September/000744.html" target="_blank">http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/pdal/2015-September/000744.html</a>),
I had 2 ideas about improved dbase functionality:</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>1. Give the option to add filenames to the patches </div>
<div>An extra column that gives the name of the original laz file
would tremendously improve the administration of importing and
updating your pointcloud data. Imagine you receive a new lasfile
with updated points (new classification for instance), you would
like to replace only those points in your dbase, but there is no
way to tell which patch originated from which file.</div>

<div>Could one not store this in a separate table along with the
PCID and then join?</div>
