[GIS] Converting LAS to DWG/DXF using open-source software

dwgdxflasliblaslidar

Is there a way to convert LAS point clouds to DWG and/or DXF files using open source software?

Also willing to script with Python – is this possible using libLAS/LASlib for example?

Best Answer

  1. You may use las2ogr (las utility application), but your GDAL libraries must be built with libLAS.
  2. Convert las file to txt using las2txt (las utility application) and use ogr2ogr converting CSV file to DXF
  3. Convert las file to txt using las2txt (las utility application) and load it to QGIS as a delimited text file and save as DXF
