installation - How to install PDAL in Windows?


I want to import .las files to PostGIS. As I found out I can do it by using PDAL.



However, I cannot find the right way to install it in Windows. I downloaded a folder from here https://www.pdal.io/download.html, but then, I don't know what to do next.



Answer



You downloaded the source code, not a prebuilt binary.


If you read the PDAL download page you linked to you will see:



Binaries


...


Windows


Windows builds are available via Conda Forge (64-bit only).




Install Conda (or Miniconda), run a Conda shell, install PDAL with


conda install -c conda-forge pdal 

and you should be good to go. See the Conda instructions for more detail.
