        Introduction
        ------------
        
        Laspy is a pythonic library for reading, modifying and writing LAS
        files. Support for LAZ is limited to reading LAS version 1.0-1.3 files.
        Laspy is compatible with Python 2.6+ and 3.5+.
        
        Laspy includes a set of command line tools which can be used to do basic
        file operations like format translation and validation as well as
        comparing LAS files.
        
        Example
        -------
        
        A simple example to show the basics of Laspy. Here we create an output
        file that only consists of terrain points from the input file:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            from laspy.file import File
            import numpy as np
        
            inFile = File('/path/to/file.las', mode='r')
        
            I = inFile.Classification == 2
        
            outFile = File('/path/to/output.las', mode='w', header=inFile.header)
            outFile.points = inFile.points[I]
            outFile.close()
        
        API Documentation and tutorials are available at
        `PythonHosted <http://pythonhosted.org/laspy>`__.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        Laspy can be installed either with ``pip``:
        
        ::
        
            pip install laspy
        
        or by running the setup script included in the source distribution:
        
        ::
        
            python setup.py build --user
            python setup.py install --user
        
        Laspy is only dependent on numpy and should therefore work on Linux, OS
        X and Windows as long as a working installation of numpy is available.
