Tool Point Cloud Cutter

This tool allows one to extract subsets from one or several point cloud datasets. The area-of-interest is defined either by bounding box coordinates, the extent of a grid system or a shapes layer, or by polygons of a shapes layer. Note that the latter does not support the inverse selection in case the shapes layer contains more than one polygon.
In case a polygon shapes layer is used and one or more polygons are selected, only the selected polygons are processed.
