Description
Note, its possible for there to be a discrepancy between this and IHeaderInfo.GetNumberOfPointsByReturn or ILasFile.GetNumberOfPointsByReturn. This is because the value from ILasReturnStatistics is based on a scan of the point records (i.e., the actual file contents), while the other methods are simply echoing what's stated in the LAS file header(s) and some LAS files have been found to contain incorrect header information.
