Export las to shp Attributes

AndrewW

Below is the attribution in a shapefile that has been exported from a las file in GM 16

Name=<NO LABEL>
Feature Type=Unknown Point Feature
Geometry=Point location: 1750551.720 5973111.100 (Lat/Lon: 36° 22' 31.2398" S, 174° 40' 42.0451" E)
Index in Layer=666847
Map Name=AG_AZ31_1339_2013.shp
ELEVATION=34.97
RETURN_HEI=0 m (0°)
CLASS=2 (Ground)
INTENSITY=58
SCAN_ANGLE=
RETURN_CNT=1
RETURN_NUM=1
GPS_TIME=63494840.175574
SOURCE_ID=2
SYNTHETIC=

Is is possible to remove the "(Ground)" description from the CLASS attribute in the las to shapefile export. Our client requires integers only ie CLASS=2.
Thanks

I have updated the export of Lidar points to ordinary vector formats to just store the number for the CLASS attribute rather than appending the class name as well.

I have placed new builds with the latest changes at the links below:

32-bit: http://www.bluemarblegeo.com/downloads/global-mapper/global_mapper16.zip
64-bit: http://www.bluemarblegeo.com/downloads/global-mapper/global_mapper16_64bit.zip

Simply download the .zip file for the build that you are using and extract over your existing installation files. The likely locations to extract to are as follows:

32-bit: C:\Program Files (x86)\GlobalMapper16
64-bit: C:\Program Files\GlobalMapper16_64bit
