What Laserfarm can do for you

  • Provides a framework to run point cloud data analysis pipelines, e.g. for macroecological research using the laserchicken library

  • Easily configurable modular pipelines

  • Cross-platform distributed computing using Dask

  • Support for local and remote storage, incl. webdav protocol

  • Used in multiple eScience and Horizon Europe projects

Laserfarm (Laserchicken Framework for Applications in Research in Macro-ecology) provides a FOSS wrapper to Laserchicken supporting the use of massive LiDAR point cloud data sets for macro-ecology, from data preparation to scheduling and execution of distributed processing across a cluster of compute nodes.
