</div></div>PDAL doesn't support PTS or PTX at this time. The FARO folks would most likely need to provide either a binary API so that a PDAL driver could be written for their format(s), or alternatively, some sort of document(s) describing the binary layout of the formats so that a driver could be written.<br>

Sorry I can't be of more help.<br>
