Hi Roberto, 

This sometimes this happens as when tiling a pulse is associated with a tile 
based on the pulse index value (i.e., normally first or last return). However, 
if some of the returns associated with the pulse are well outside the tile the 
bounding box of the tile will extended due to these points. 

In the case you are showing, have you indexed the pulses using the last return? 
And is there a pulse with a noise return several hundred metres in the air at 
the edge of a swath which is causing what I described above? 

Or there could be a pulse which has been incorrectly built from the LAS file 
(i.e., the wrong returns have been corrected - I have had cases of this when 
the input LAS file is not provided in strict return by pulse order).  If you 
load all the data within the tile try turning on the pulse vectors have see if 
there is a blue line going off at an ‘odd’ (incorrect) angle. 

Hope that helps and makes sense.

Cheers, Pete
