Hi FME users   just letting you know [EMAIL PROTECTED] has informed me of the new LIDAR reader in FME builds 4148+   "We have at last added a LIDAR reader to FME in the latest 2007 beta. Please look for builds 4148+ at http://www.safe.com/support/downloads/index.php#fme_suite " Thanks Safe   Darren -----Original Message----- From: fme@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of mark2atsafe Sent: Tuesday, 20 June 2006 5:19 a.m. To: fme@yahoogroups.com Subject: [fme] Re: Can FME translate a LIDAR (.las) file Hi folks, Looks like we are keen on the idea and will add FME support for this format. No target date has been set as yet - I'll post more info when I find it. If anyone else needs this format then let us know via [EMAIL PROTECTED]com (or via this group) - our development is very much user demand driven.
