contents <pre><code>lidar_water_filter.py v1.0 — Separate land and water points in coastal LiDAR point clouds Features • Zero extra setup — single file • Handles LAS/LAZ input • Classifies using elevation and optional intensity thresholds (low intensity = water) • Outputs separate land/water LAS/LAZ files (preserves CRS, timestamps, metadata) • Optional cross-section plot (subsampled for performance) • Efficient for large coastal surveys Dependencies • Requires numpy (>=1.26), laspy (>=2.5), matplotlib (>=3.8) — standard in geospatial Python environments Intended for coastal scientists and maritime archaeologists studying drowned landscapes or submerged sites. Primarily for topographic (NIR) LiDAR; green-spectrum bathymetric LiDAR may require water-level-specific elevation thresholds. Real usage: python lidar_water_filter.py coastal_scan.laz --elevation-threshold 0.5 --land-output land.laz --water-output water.laz python lidar_water_filter.py data.laz --intensity-threshold 100 --plot Made by Britt (2025) — MIT License</code></pre>
