In the past I was able to use the ArcGIS tool LAS Point Statistics as Raster
, but it is failing to work in ArcGIS Pro 2.2 or ArcGIS 10.7 on Windows 10.
After creating an LAS dataset, issuing the following command results in an error message:
arcpy.management.LasPointStatsAsRaster('lasdataset', 'outraster', "POINT_COUNT", "CELL_SIZE", 10)
The ArcGIS error message is 000210, "Cannot create output". I have tried to write to both a geodatabase and a folder.
When I use the following command, the function works:
arcpy.management.LasPointStatsAsRaster('lasdataset', 'outraster', "POINT_COUNT", "OBSERVATIONS", 10)
I have tried it in ArcGIS 10.7, Pro 2.2 both in the GUI and using arcpy. I really need a cell size of 10 m, and the observations cell size is huge.
