Inspect a LAS object
Performs a deep inspection of a LAS or LAScatalog object and prints a report.
For a LAS object it checks:
if the point cloud is valid according to las specification
if the header is valid according to las specification
if the point cloud is in accordance with the header
if the point cloud has duplicated points and degenerated ground points
it the coordinate reference sytem is correctly recorded
if some pre-processing, such as normalization or ground filtering, is already done.
For a LAScatalog object it checks:
if the headers are consistent across files
if the files are overlapping
if some pre-processing, such as normalization, is already done.
For the pre-processing tests the function only makes an estimation and may not be correct.
