Hi Mike,

Would be possible to add an option for the las/laz files to treat elevations Relative to Ground ?
I am exporting lidar points relative to ground (vegetation) and I would like to be able to load this over another surface.

Thanks,
Remi

    Hello 946,

    You can change the Valid Elevation Range for the data from the Overlay Control Center, from the Alter Elevation Values tab. Please let me know if this does not achieve what you need.

    Regards,

    Hi Jasmine,
    Thanks for the replay!
    It s not this what I am after.In have a classified lidar point cloud and I exported a part of vegetation as laz file with the options to keep height above ground instead of elevation and to store RGB values for each point. When I load this back into GM I would like to view the points relative to a loaded surface. Now the points are relative to "0". I would like the same behavior like for 3d dxf files for example.
