update_tile_header: Update a LAS header based on current point data

In mbedward/CERMBlidar: A collection of functions to process aerial LIDAR data

Update a LAS header based on current point data

Description

This function can be called to update the header information of a LAS object after making direct changes to its points data (e.g. removing selected points). It does a little more than the similar function header_update in the rlas package which only updates the header elements for min and max X, Y and Z, and the number of points. This function additionally updates the X and Y offsets.

Usage

update_tile_header(las)

Arguments

las	A LAS object, e.g. imported using prepare_tile.

Value

A LAS object with header information updated, if necessary, to accord with its current data.
