Hi,

I got this error sometimes but not systematically. It could be that if I run this again I would not get the same error for the same file. "PointCloudSplitter (PointCloudSplitterFactory): Failed to get block of 10000 points starting at index 3100000."

Is there a way to check beforehand is this transformer is going to fail?

Best regards,

Felipe Verdú

Hi @felipeverdu1! I found a similar error reported a few years ago that suggested the cause of the error was potentially corrupt data. In that instance the header stated that there were more points than there actually was in the file. A workaround for this was to use the PointCloudThinner to read most of the file successfully by thinning the dataset to, say, the first 3100000 points. Let us know if this helps.
