What is LASzip: Efficient LiDAR Compression about?

This document introduces LASzip, a lossless compression scheme for LiDAR point cloud data stored in LAS format files. LASzip can compress files to 7-25% of the original size while maintaining streaming and random access capabilities during decompression. It achieves high speeds of 1-3 million points per second during compression and decompression. The software is open source and unencumbered by patents, making it suitable for inclusion in the LAS format standard.
