Hi, I hope you can help me. I have LiDAR and NIR data where I need to extract the location and possibly the height of the trees along the city boulevard. Thanks so much.

Hi @ruby. Sharing a few more details will help the FME community help you. Please reply to this thread and provide additional details including:

 

  • The version of FME you are using, including build number and edition
  • A small sample of your data, or screenshots of the data in the FME Data Inspector
  • A description of your expected output, with screenshots if possible
  • Your FME workspace
  • Your FME translation log file
  • Any other information that may be useful to share

Hi Natalie. Here are the info;

 


 

  • FME
    Desktop ESRI Edition (Floating) : FME ®️ 2017.0.0.0 (20170228 – Build 17529 –
    Win64)
  • Input
    – NIR Raster data in TIFF and LAS file. The LAS file is really big. I just took
    a screen shot (below). I have an idea about getting the tree heights after
    identifying the tree location using ArcMap’s Geoprocessing tools.
  • Sample Tile info below:

     

     

     

  • Screen
    shot of the LAS data (451 LAS files (Classified)

 

 


 

  • The
    Output looks like below. I started using ESRI’s. The output will be a point feature in SHP or FGDB format.

 

I started a workspace but not really successful.

 

 


Hi @ruby. This point cloud workspace created by @dmitribagh for the 2016 World Tour may be helpful in getting started with workspace creation: https://www.dropbox.com/s/d9lon9qqa8492wr/PC_Sort_Merge_for_DEM_Class.fmwt?dl=0


Thanks so much for your help.
