[GRASS-user] [LAStools] Visualising data such as scan angle, gps time, etc

Hello Adam,

the tools for gridding parameters other than the elevation are las2dem/blast2dem for intensity, slope, and RGB and lasgrid for scan_angle, classification, intensity, return counts, etc … the GUI shows you the possible options in the selection box. You can then create a BIL or ASC raster and visualize this with your favorite raster software or with lasview …

lasgrid -i lidar.laz ^
-lowest -abs_scan_angle ^
-step 1 ^
-o minscanangles.asc

lasview -i minscanangles.asc ^
-color_by_elevation2 ^
-win 1200 900 ^
-points 5000000

cheers,

Is there a way to visualize things like scan angle or gps time in a las/laz file. I dont want to view the raw data as ascii, I want to view it in a convenient format, such as a raster or similar.

e.g. Can I output a raster using las2dem where the cell values are populated with these other datapoints instead of the usual elevation? Or is there some nice GUI for viewing this other data?
