jean-romain / lidrviewer Goto Github PK

This is on Windows 10 x64 architecture.
Installed SDL using script (source("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Jean-Romain/lidRviewer/master/sdl.R")) as admin
Installed lidRviewer devtools::install_github("Jean-Romain/lidRviewer").

plot(las) with rgl works (barely).

plot(las, backend = "lidRviewer")
Error in match.arg(backend) : 'arg' should be one of “rgl”

I installed lidR from the standard CRAN repository. With "lidRviewer" failing in the argument check for the backend parameter, maybe a different lidR install is needed?

I successfully installed on macOS. But the package still doesn't work.

First I installed the dependencies:

brew install sdl
brew install freeglut

I changed some of the source files like so:

#if defined(__APPLE__)
#include <OpenGL/gl.h>
#include <OpenGL/glu.h>
#else
#include <GL/gl.h>
#include <GL/glu.h>
#endif

Then I deleted src/Makevars. Next, I created a configure file in the root folder:

#!/bin/bash
if [ $(uname) == "Linux" ]
then
  echo 'PKG_LIBS= -lGL -lGLU -lSDL -LSDmain' > ./src/Makevars
elif [ $(uname) == "Darwin" ]
then
  echo 'PKG_LIBS= -framework OpenGL -lSDL' > ./src/Makevars
fi

Now I can successfully install PointCloudViewer with:

R -e 'devtools::install(".")'

Finally, I tried an example to see if it worked:

#!/usr/bin/env Rscript

library(PointCloudViewer)

x   <- runif(1000, 0, 100)
y   <- runif(1000, 0, 100)
z   <- runif(1000, 0, 100)
col <- rainbow(10)
id  <- sample(1:10, length(x), replace = TRUE)
plot_xyzcol(x, y, z, col, id)

I can see the message Point cloud viewer must be closed before to run other R code, but I don't see any viewer.

Do you know what I might be missing?

Hi JR,
I'm playing a bit with the 1.4.1 on a old dual core ( 64bit, 4gb RAM) with Ubuntu.
I tried to simply load and display the pointcloud (appr. 500Mb, 7.5M points) but RStudio opens it with rgl by default and not with this viewer.
I installed the necessary libs as described in the initial page and no error is reported. Any idea where to look for the issue? I'm definitely not experienced with ubuntu.

When I go to install libsdl-dev I get the error

Package libsdl-dev is a virtual package provided by:
libsdl1.2-dev 1.2.15+dfsg2-6
libsdl1.2-compat-dev 1.2.52-3
You should explicitly select one to install.

E: Package 'libsdl-dev' has no installation candidate

apt-get install libsdl2-2.0-0 appears to install fine, but when I execute, the following happens. Any ideas? thanks!

Hi,
I would love to use lidRviewer, but unfortunately I dont have admin rights on my maschine.
Is there any way to use it without admin rights?
Or are you aware of any possible alternatives? (E.g. stream it to QGIS pointcloud viewer)

Hello,
I am trying to render a LAS file using R studio (server). When I just try to plot following the command you provide I get a sort of error message and my R session hangs.
In your documentation I see that you say that the R viewer should be stopped...not sure how this can be done in R studio actually.

asUtr<-readLAS("/data2/utrechtCenter.las")  
plot(lasUtr,backend="pcv") 
#> Point cloud viewer must be closed before to run other R code

Thanks for help in advance.

Hi,

great work. It is indeed very performing. I am just struggling to use the id option. Your example perfectly works. I am now trying to apply it to a LiDAR point cloud and would like to colourize the Z values with height colours. But somehow it is not clear to me how to use the "id" option in this case, except generating random colours. Also the regular specifications of color palettes does not work as used in rgl.

Could put an example for a LiDAR data set and rainbow(50) or height.colours(50) ?

Thanks, a lot.

Hi!

Both prereq libraries have been installed however, albeit with a warning for SDL that a newer verion is used as far as I understand the issue.

Is there a way of getting the installation to find SDL.h so I can use the package properly?

Fedora has moved to SDL2, and the current version of sdl.h is in /usr/include/SDL2 instead of /usr/include/SDL
(SDL2-devel.x86_64 2.26.2-1.fc36)

A symbolic link fixed that, but unfortunately SDL_BUTTON_WHEELUP and SDL_BUTTON_WHEELDOWN are not part of the current includes. I imagine there's a new specification, but I'm not familiar with SDL.

Dear Jean-Romain,

I've been using your R packages quite heavily lately, but now I'm running into issues I cannot quite fix. Thanks to your lidR plug-ins I've calculated voxels that represent LAD. Plotting these voxels with a correct color scheme did not work for me with the basic rgl viewer, that is why I tried the pcv instead. All the voxels appear with the same color (as can be seen in the picture below), while the LAD values should tell otherwise. FYI: for testing I took your Megaplot.laz, I'm using Windows 10 and there are 249690 voxels in the dataframe.

The calculation of the LAD voxels:

library(lidR)
library(lidRplugins)
library(PointCloudViewer)
LASfile <- system.file("extdata", "Megaplot.laz", package="lidR")
las = readLAS(LASfile)
voxelsLAD = grid_metrics3d(las, ~LAD(z=las@data$Z, dz = 1, k= 0.5, z0= 1), 5)
plot(voxelsLAD, color = "lad", colorPalette = heat.colors(5), bg = "black", legend = TRUE)

The plotting done with rgl:

plot(voxelsLAD, color = "lad", colorPalette = heat.colors(5), bg = "black", legend = TRUE)

The plotting done with pcv:

plot_xyzcol(voxelsLAD$X, voxelsLAD$Y, voxelsLAD$Z, col = heat.colors(10), id = cut(voxelsLAD$lad, 10, label = FALSE))

The cut(voxelsLAD$lad, 10, label = FALSE) results in a large integer looking like so: [1] 5 5 7 9 10 10 9 9 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 7 7 5 4 3 2 1 1 1 1 1 5 5 7 9 10 ...

The issue is that the colorramp is not applying itself to the LAD values. Any idea what is going wrong here? Thanks!

Hello,

plot(las1, color="RGB", backend = "lidRviewer") return the following stacktrace :

Erreur dans lidRviewer::plot_xyzrgb(x@data$X, x@data$Y, x@data$Z, x@data$R,  :

8. lidRviewer::plot_xyzrgb(x@data$X, x@data$Y, x@data$Z, x@data$R,

6. eval(parse(text = "lidRviewer::plot_xyzrgb(x@data$X, x@data$Y, x@data$Z, x@data$R, x@data$G, x@data$B, args$size)"))
5. lasplot(x, bg, idcolor, pal, clear_artifacts, axis, legend, args,

4. plot.LAS(x, y, ..., color = color, pal = pal, bg = bg, breaks = breaks,

3. .local(x, y = y, ...)
2. plot(las1, color = "RGB", backend = "lidRviewer")
1. plot(las1, color = "RGB", backend = "lidRviewer")

It works with backend="rgl" or with color="Classification", color="Intensity", etc. Only the combo color="RGB", backend = "lidRviewer" return the error.

Hi Jean,
It says the following warning. Warning in install.packages : package ‘PointCloudViewer’ is not available (for R version 3.6.3).

I exactly followed the steps advised in this link. Then it showed another issue after following the 2nd step for windows installation which is:

source("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Jean-Romain/PointCloudViewer/master/sdl.R")
#> Downloading and installing SDL headers...
#> - SDL headers downloaded
#> - SDL headers uncompressed
#> Error in file.copy(includes, inc, recursive = TRUE) : more 'from' files than 'to' files

#> In dir.create(inc) : cannot create dir 'C:\PROGRA~1\R\R-36~1.3\include\SDL', reason 'Permission denied'
#> Called from: file.copy(includes, inc, recursive = TRUE)

Please let me know what could be the solution for installing this package.

Thanks and Regards,
Yogendra
