[pdal] [EXTERNAL] Unable to create hexer stage, PDAL_DRIVER_PATH

[Richard Greenwood]

FWIW - I built hexer and rebuilt pdal w/ hexer and now I'm getting the same
error that I get when using * --fast_boundary*
    PDAL: GDAL failure (1)
"/gis/Wyoming/22_Teton/DEM/NAVD88/Lidar2015/Alta/LAS_1.3/Alta_0101.las" not
recognised as an available field
"Alta_0101.las" is the first file in the directory. I tried on two other
directories with data from different sources and got the same error
referring to the first file in the directory.

The results from
   $*pdal info Alta_0101.las*
Look pretty reasonable, not that I know anything about Lidar data, but the
values shown are all within ranges that I expect for my coordinate system.

Thanks for the advise so far.

Rich
