Hello,

Is there a way to convert LiDAR Cloud Point (.las) to DEM Raster With Spectrum Colors Based On Elevation Values?

I see the following post (https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/1345/creating-a-raster-from-a-point-cloud.html), but just hope the expert may show me how to colorize the raster image with Spectrum Color like following image:

Thanks a lot,

Reno

Hi @renosungis, a possible way is: convert the point cloud to a UInt8 DEM raster (see the article you have linked), create a color palette with the RGBGradationCalculator (from FME Hub), then add the palette to the DEM raster.

Hi @takashi,

Thanks a lot for your answer!

Just would like to share a good tool for generating the Seed Colors in RGB/HEX in a minute.

http://www.zonums.com/online/color_ramp/

After I have generated the custom color ramp, I copied the color ramp table to Google Sheets using a function called TEXTJOIN with character ";".

Thanks for sharing the good tool.

 

If the spacings (n) between adjacent fixed colors are identical, I think the RGBGradationCalculator with this Seed Colors could generate the same palette.
