Types

PDAL supports the standard integral and floating point types for dimensions. This table lists the types and associated strings that can be used to describe the types in options.

Type	Size in Bits	Text Representations
Signed Integer	8	int8, int8_t, char
Signed Integer	16	int16, int16_t, short
Signed Integer	32	int32, int32_t, int
Signed Integer	64	int64, int64_t, long
Unsigned Integer	8	uint8, uint8_t, uchar
Unsigned Integer	16	uint16, uint16_t, ushort
Unsigned Integer	32	uint32, uint32_t, uint
Unsigned Integer	64	uint64, uint64_t, ulong
Floating Point	32	float, float32
Floating Point	64	double, float64
