Description

Use this method to add multiple LAS files at once.

folderName is the full path of the folder.

fileExtension is used to add files of a certain type. Use the extension ‘las’ to add LAS files. This is case-insensitive.

bRecursive, if set to True, would also include LAS files in sub folders.

ppBadFiles is a string array that is populated with the names of the las files that could not be added to the las dataset. That includes files that are corrupt or invalid.
