Min/max datafilters are confusing to use #31

Closed pomerlef closed 6 years ago

pomerlef commented 10 years ago

The documentation seems to confuse greater than and smaller than: https://github.com/ethz-asl/libpointmatcher/blob/master/doc/Datafilters.md#maximum-distance-filter-

Those filter should be combined and a parameter should be added to select whether we want to keep point smaller or greater than a threshold.
