20 Aug 2011 LASRead Reads in files in LAS 1.1 format and outputs comma delimited text files. Author: Cici Alexander

LAS file formats 1.1 and 1.2 are so similar, that this m-file can read LAS1.2 files. Just change line 35 from:

if VersionMajor ~= 1 || VersionMinor ~= 1

to:

if VersionMajor ~= 1

and it will work!

This is a very helpful file. Are you planning on unp-dating it to read LAS 1.2?

Nice function. I think you could make it much more robust to mis-placed spaces by using "xmlread" and then the W3C XML-handling classes, e.g.:
>> doc = xmlread(fileName);
>> c = doc.getElementsByTagName('coordinates').item(0);
>> coord_str = c.getChildNodes().item(0).getData();
etc.
