Bug#1055504: ITP: laz-perf -- LAZperf is an alternative LAZ (Compressed LAS pointclouds) decoding implementation.

[Gürkan Myczko <gurkan@phys.ethz.ch>]

I would be great to help, cloudcompare seems to support it. Find me as tarzeau_ on irc

I prefer uploads to mentors.d.n

 Description     : LAZperf is an alternative LAZ (Compressed LAS pointclouds) decoding implementation.

It supports compilation to WASM via Emscripten so that LAZ data can be decoded in a browser.
LAZperf is a dependecy for the PDAL library (https://github.com/PDAL/PDAL/).
PDAL can be used as a library for QGIS (https://qgis.org) to be able to read/analyze point clouds.

I'm planning to maintain both LAZperf and PDAL with the science packaging team.

If I'm correct I'm also looking for a sponsor. But I'm very new to Debian packaging, so every help is appreciated
