[pdal] In two LAZ files "WARNING: files have different point types: 3 vs 7"

[Ulises Ibarra]

Hello:

When I applied a transformation to a file from
input_EPSG32611+Ellipsoidal_height.laz to output_EPSG32611+5703.laz and
want to display both files using lasview, I am informed of an alert:

C:\LAStools\bin>lasview \clouds\PATH\*1*.laz
WARNING: files have different point types: 3 vs 7
WARNING: files have different point sizes: 34 vs 36

But if I get the information of both files with "pdal info --metadata
file.laz", they both indicate:

"dataformat_id": 3,

and I don't find any information regarding "point sizes"

Questions (I clarify that the version of the LAS file is 1.2):
1. How could I fix these two problems?
2. Are they really a problem?
3. Are "point type" and "dataformat_id" two different things?

Best regards

Ulises Ibarra
