So I ran a 187MB file, with about 10M points (UAV Lidar w/ 200PPSM), with the default settings of -s 1.5 -t 0.3, and it took just over an hour. It looks like it did an amazing job! I could probably back the setting off to -s 5.0 -t 1.0 since this is not a metric data set. I'll give it a go.
What is the estimated maximum file size, in terms of points or disc file size, for using the default -s 1.5 -t 0.3. I have a 618MB file with 32M points (UAV Lidar w/ 200PPSM). My test runs on smaller files looks great. Thank you!
Potentially yes, if the scale parameter you input is largely out of range. You could take a look at the example. You might also try splitting your tile into smaller tiles.
Does the input parameters have an impact on the processing speed? It takes me a long time to process a 280Mb LAS file. Thank you for your reply
I have emailed you. Thank you!
I've compiled a 64-bit version of mcc-lidar that is unreleased. If you can send me a download link to your LAS file I'll see if this 64-bit version chokes on it as well. If it fails I have 2 other tools for classifying ground returns that work well. One is based on PDAL and the other is based on the CSF method here: https://lidarwidgets.com/samples/remotesensing-08-00501.pdf If the 64-bit version of mcc-lidar fails, I'll use one of my other tools toclassify your file at no charge. Email me a download...
The other files are approximately the same size, some slighty more. I was able to successfully run the program for about 5 las files after getting this error, so I would think that memory isn't a problem. But then again computer processing is a bit outside of my knowledge so maybe it is a memory issue?
If you are using the 32-bit version of mcc-lidar found here it's possible that you are running out of memory as 32-bit apps can only address up to 4GB of RAM no matter how much RAM you have installed in your PC. How many points are in the other files that you successfully processed?
Hello, I have been working with multiple different las datasets (about 20). I have been able to successfully run the program for all but one. The program is crashing as it searches for points with the same x, y coordinates. mcc-lidar -s 1.0 -t 0.1 47117D5409.las mccD5409.las Reading 12,090,309 points from "47117D5409.las" min X Y : 460395.94 5251132.02 max X Y : 461348.01 5252527.45 Searching for points with the same x, y coordiantes.... (It crashes here) mcc-lidar has stopped working window appears...
Hi, I cant open the exe, i get an error that theres a dll file missing (MSVCR71), i tried re installation a couple of times already. Can anybody help? Thanks.
Hi, Sorry for the trouble William, but I'm also a Windows user. You are correct that others who use linux or Mac have succeeded in building and version and installing. Are any of you out there willing to contribute your build please, and perhaps posting a link to it on this Discussion page? Thanks, Andy Hudak
Hi, I am trying to use the MCC-LIDAR on a mac or a linux machine but each time I download the MCC-LIDAR-2.1-setup.exe (or previous versions) it is only a Microsoft Windows application. Reading the discussion, it appears there are working linux and macintosh versions. This is also confirmed within the wiki. How may these be downloaded? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, William Currier
GUI for MCC-LIDAR is no longer freeware. You can learn more about this and my other apps at: http://lidarwidgets.com
You may find that PDAL is a better solution for you. It offers 2 methods for ground classification (SMRF and PMF) and it is significantly faster than MCC-LIDAR, already has 64-bit binaries ready for use and tt also supports compressed LAZ files. You can download and install it via OS4GEO here: http://download.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/osgeo4w-setup-x86_64.exe Its command line can be challenging which is why I wrote a GUI for it: https://youtu.be/cHXYh31MT14
The CMAKE/Visual Studio route is the easiest Avoid cygwin unless you're well versed in Linux and makefiles. The only thing that might slow you down are the dependencies. It requires 64-bit builds of Boost and liblas. Other than that, the build process was point-and-click once CMAKE had generated the Visual Studio solution file.

Thanks Steve. I'm inexperienced in Visual Studio/cygwin although perhaps I need to play around with it. I have tiled my data and am running parallel batch commands...
I don't have immediate plans to release a 64-bit PC build, but that would be great. Would you be interested in contributing it, Steve? You would of course be given credit for providing it.
A 64-bit build is quite easy if you have basic development skills in either Visual Studio or cygwin. I've compiled a 64-bit version for Windows and a GUI interface which makes things much nicer. I've also written another classification GUI for PDAL, also 64-bit. Here's a link to a video of the PDAL classification tool: https://youtu.be/cHXYh31MT14 And here's the thread about the MCC-LIDAR GUI with screenshot: https://sourceforge.net/p/mcclidar/discussion/961944/thread/06d1f263/ See my other tools...
