    And also look at the FREE alternative LAZ and how it is compared to the commercial solution from LizardTech: https://lidarbb.cr.usgs.gov/index.php?showtopic=8455

  2. Thanks STH. I heard from more than one source that the free option was “better.” Nice to see some numbers backing up those statements. I wonder if software vendors will choose one over the other to support?
