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 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. The default is 1.4.
| 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) | A list of optional modifications 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 method used to provide a unique name for each output LAS file. Each file 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 or numeric field names will also be included as a source for defining the file name. The following automatically generated naming conventions are supported:
| String |
Target File Size (MB)
(Optional) | This value, which is expressed in megabytes, 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 changes when the Tile Width and Tile Height parameters are modified. When input features are specified in the Import from Feature Class parameter, this parameter will be disabled. | Double |
Tile Width
(Optional) | The width of each tile. Specifying a value will update the target file size and point count if a tile height is also present. Similarly, if the target file size or point count is independently updated, the tile width and height will also be changed to reflect the size of the corresponding tile. When input features are specified in the Import from Feature Class parameter, the tile width will be derived from the height of the first feature, and this parameter will be disabled. | Linear Unit |
Tile Height
(Optional) | The height of each tile. Specifying a value will update the target file size if a tile width is also present. Similarly, if the target file size is independently updated, the tile width and height will also be proportionately changed to reflect the size of the corresponding tile. When input features are specified in the Import from Feature Class parameter, the tile height will be derived from the height of the first feature, and this parameter will be disabled. | 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. When input features are specified in the Import from Feature Class parameter, the origin will be inherited from the lower left corner of the first feature, and this parameter will be disabled. | Point |
