LAS files taking a long time #69

Closed shots74 closed 3 years ago

shots74 commented 3 years ago

While in the golf tool designer and the course is being built off the .las files and .xml files, this process takes a very long time, days even. A whole day has gone by and out of 7,000 files, this application has only gone through 500 files, why is this taking so long to complete?

7000 is probably too many files..... I think you’re trying to process data for a whole county, state, or country.

How many MB is the data? You can use at most 1/2 of raw data as your computer has RAM.

The data that was extracted was about a terabyte. I am trying to created Glen Brook Golf Club in Stroudsburg PA. and following the process, these are the files that were provided.

I can’t provide specific support for narrowing down the files, but that’s about 1000 times too much data. I would use 200MB to 1GB at most.

There should be some key or guide on how to narrow the files down by number or name. Otherwise, try one file at a time to verify the process is running and narrow it down.
