completly agree with you. W PDAL :) I strongly suggest to automize your processes. creating json pipelines and consume them creating python/processing scripts using pyton interface to PDAL (can be named pyPDAL?).
Is this your use case? tell us more or better prepare a UseCase story that can be published in QGIS pages. regards Luigi Pirelli ************************************************************************************************** * LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/luigipirelli * Stackexchange: http://gis.stackexchange.com/users/19667/luigi-pirelli * GitHub: https://github.com/luipir * Book: Mastering QGIS3 - 3rd Edition <https://www.packtpub.com/eu/application-development/mastering-geospatial-development-qgis-3x-third-edition> * Hire a team: http://www.qcooperative.net ************************************************************************************************** On Sat, 3 Jul 2021 at 01:48, Drew French <[email protected]> wrote: > I just wanted to share a quick story with you - I recently switched over > to Linux from Windows and it has been interesting - overall very positive > but a definite learning curve going on here.
