Description
What is the bug or the crash?
pdal:clip (and other pdal-Tools) does not work when Input is a vpc (containing *.copc.laz) and Output is a temporary output file or a vpc or copc.laz
Steps to reproduce the issue
I try tu use pdal:clip with a vpc as inputlayer containing several *.copc.laz-files a polygonlayer overlapping the corner of four tiles and different output-formats:
• Output is a single laz-File named "output.laz": Works, File "output.copc.laz" is automaticaly created after loading the laz-file "output.laz"
• Output is a single las-File named "output.las": Works, File "output.copc.laz" is automaticaly created after loading the laz-file "output.las"
• Output is a single copc.laz-File: Does not work, the output-laz-file only contains the points of one of the four tiles.
• Output is a Temporary Output File: Does not work
In this case a OUTPUT.vpc and a Folder named OUTPUT is created in C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Temp\processing_YYYYYY\XXXXXXXX
In that OUTPUT-Folder the clipped-out tiles of the Source-vpc-File are stored named TILENAME.copc.las. But in fact they are no .copc.las-Files but just ordinary .las-Files. After the Export QGIS trys to open the OUTPUT.vpc but the vpc-file contains wrong pathnames.
• Output is a vpc: Does not work
In this case the situaltion is similar to Output is Temporary Output Files but the vpc and a subfolder named like the vpc-file is created in the output-folder. In this subfolder the 4 clipped tiles are created as *copc.las Files, but the vpc-file is malformed and does not load the tiles.
pdal:thinbyradius: ~ the same behavior as for pdal:clip.
Pbrobably the same with other pdal-tools
