laz-rs

Implementation or rather, translation of LAZ (laszip compression) format in Rust.

The goal of this project is to be a port of the Laszip compression, allowing LAS readers to be able to read / write LAZ data, but not a fully featured LAS reader.

If you want a user friendly Rust LAS reader, las-rs is what you are looking for. las-rs can use laz-rs to manage LAZ data by enabling the laz feature of the las-rs crate.

Original Implementations:

• LASzip
• LAStools
• laz-perf

Minimal Rust version: 1.40.0
