[pdal] Distance Vector2PointCloud or PointCloud2PointCloud

[Antonio Molina]

Hi,

Is there any way to measure distances between a vector and a point cloud or
between two point clouds in pdal? I am looking for something similar to
CloudCompare cloud2cloud distance algorithm, where a new scalar field is
generated for each return with the min distance between 2 point clouds.

I have been trying with haudorff:
https://pdal.io/apps/hausdorff.html?highlight=distance

But it returns the maximum distance between two point clouds, which is not
exactly what I am looking for.

Thank you :)


Kind regards
