Process several LiDAR files
If you want to generate a map for a large area, you might need to process several LiDAR (an acronym of “light detection and ranging” or “laser imaging, detection, and ranging”) is a method for determining ranges by targeting an object or a surface with a laser and measuring the time for the reflected light to return to the receiver.batch subcommand.

Dots per inch (DPI, or dpi) is a measure of spatial printing, video or image scanner dot density, in particular the number of individual dots that can be placed in a line within the span of 1 inch (2.54 cm). Similarly, dots per centimetre (d/cm or dpcm) refers to the number of individual dots that can be placed within a line of 1 centimetre (0.394 in).in at the root of the directory in which you are executing Cassini. The output tiles and the merged map will be put in a directory named out. You can specify the input and output directories with the --input-dir and the --output-dir arguments. The map default resolution is 600
If you are not happy with the result (too few cliffs, too much green…), you can modify the configuration and re-generate the map while skipping the LiDAR (an acronym of “light detection and ranging” or “laser imaging, detection, and ranging”) is a method for determining ranges by targeting an object or a surface with a laser and measuring the time for the reflected light to return to the receiver.--skip-lidar argument. Check the configuration reference to learn more about all the configuration options.
