Label | Explanation | Data Type |
Input LAS Dataset | The LAS dataset that will be processed. | LAS Dataset Layer |
Target Folder
| The folder where the tiled LAS files will be written. | Folder |
Output Base Name
(Optional) | The name that each output file will begin with. | String |
Output LAS Dataset
(Optional) | The new LAS dataset that references the tiled LAS files created by this tool. This parameter is optional. | LAS Dataset |
Compute statistics (Optional) | Specifies whether statistics will be computed for the .las files referenced by the LAS dataset. Computing statistics provides a spatial index for each .las file, which improves analysis and display performance. Statistics also enhance the filtering and symbology experience by limiting the display of LAS attributes, such as classification codes and return information, to values that are present in the .las file.
| Boolean |
Output Version
(Optional) | Specifies the LAS file version of each output file.
| String |
Point Format
(Optional) | The point record format of the output LAS files. The available options will vary based on the LAS file version specified in the Output Version parameter. | Long |
Compression
(Optional) | Specifies whether the output LAS file will be in a compressed format or the standard LAS format.
| String |
LAS Options
(Optional) | Specifies modifications that will be made to the output LAS files.
| String |
Import from Feature Class
(Optional) | The polygon features that define the tile width and height to be used when tiling the lidar data. The polygons are presumed to be rectangular, and the first feature's extent is used to define the tile width and height. | Feature Layer |
Naming Method
(Optional) | Specifies the naming convention that will be used to provide a unique name for the output files. This name will be appended to the text specified in the Output Base Name parameter. When input features are used to define the tiling scheme, its text fields can also be used to provide a unique name for the output files.
| String |
Target File Size (MB)
(Optional) | A value, which is expressed in megabytes, that represents the upper limit of the uncompressed file size of an output LAS tile with uniform point distribution across its entire extent. The default is 250, and the value is used to estimate the tile width and height. The value of this parameter will change when the Tile Width and Tile Height parameters are modified. When the Import from Feature Class parameter is specified, this parameter will be disabled. | Double |
Tile Width
(Optional) | The width of each tile. This parameter is disabled when the Import from Feature Class parameter is specified. If the tile width and height are both provided, the Target File Size (MB) parameter will be updated to reflect the size of the output that would be generated with these dimensions. Similarly, if the Target File Size (MB) parameter is modified, the tile width and height get updated to reflect this change. | Linear Unit |
Tile Height
(Optional) | The height of each tile. This parameter is disabled when the Import from Feature Class parameter is specified. If the tile width and height are both provided, the Target File Size (MB) parameter will be updated to reflect the size of the output that would be generated with these dimensions. Similarly, if the Target File Size (MB) parameter is modified, the tile width and height get updated to reflect this change. | Linear Unit |
Tile Origin
(Optional) | The coordinates of the origin of the tiling grid. The default values are obtained from the lower left corner of the input LAS dataset. This parameter is disabled when input features are specified for the Import from Feature Class parameter. | Point |
