Then, the line of sight (estimated vector between a point and the
position of the scanner at its time of acquisition) is estimated:
- if both `scan_direction_flag` and `scan_angle` are provided, the
line of sight can be directly computed as a combination of the 2D
vector of the projected scanline, the vertical vector and the
- if `scan_angle` is provided, the line of sight can be directly
computed as a combination of the estimated scanline and of the
scan angle.
- if only `scan_angle` is provided, then for each scanline, the
position of the scanner is estimated as being above the point of
the scanline which has the minimum scan angle absolute
value. This method is less optimal than the one using
`scan_direction_flag`.
- if none of these property maps are provided, then for each
scanline, the position of the scanner is estimated as being above
of the barycenter of the points of the scanline projected on the
- if no scan angle map is provided, then for each scanline, the
position of the scanner is estimated as being above of the
barycenter of the points of the scanline projected on the
XY-plane. This fallback method gives suboptimal results.
Once the line of sight is estimated for each point, the normals are
