SAGA-GIS Module Library Documentation (v2.1.3)

Module Create Virtual Point Cloud Dataset

The module allows to create a virtual point cloud dataset from a set of SAGA point cloud files. Such a virtual dataset is a simple XML format with the file extension .spcvf, which describes a mosaic of individual point cloud files. Such a virtual point cloud dataset can be used for seamless data access with the 'Get Subset from Virtual Point Cloud' module.
All point cloud input datasets must share the same attribute table structure, NoData value and projection.
