Add Timestamp Min/Max to LAS 1.5 header #118

Closed esilvia closed 1 year ago

esilvia commented 2 years ago

I think it might be worthwhile to add a Min/Max Timestamp to the LAS 1.5 header. It would share encoding with the PDRF timestamps, including the new encoding format from #6.

Because of the diversity of interpretation of several of the fields (e.g., PtSourceID), it's probably not realistic to add MBRs for every field to the LAS header itself. We can use a VLR for that, as in #39. This thread should be constrained to discussing adding just the timestamp range to the header.

Added clarifying language for the aggregate model systems, typo fixes, during today's LWG call. Merged into 1.5 draft and complete!
