A Rust library for working with point cloud data. It features:
- Fine-grained support for arbitrary point attributes, similar to PDAL, but with added type safety
- A very flexible memory model, natively supporting both Array-of-Structs (AoS) and Struct-of-Arrays (SoA) memory layouts
- Support for reading and writing various point cloud formats with the
pasture-iocrate - A growing set of algorithms with the
pasture-algorithmscrate
To this end, pasture chooses flexibility over simplicity. If you are looking for something small and simple, for example to work with LAS files, try a crate like las. If you are planning to implement high-performance tools and services that will work with very large point cloud data, pasture is what you are looking for!
Add this to your Cargo.toml:
[dependencies]
pasture-core = "0.1.0"
# You probably also want I/O support
pasture-io = "0.1.0"
pasture is in the early stages of development and is not yet stable.
