What is a .laz file?
LAZ is the compressed form of LAS LiDAR point cloud data. It keeps LAS-style metadata while compressing the point records.
Why is .laz hard to open on a phone?
- Phone viewers usually cannot inspect LAZ headers or compression metadata.
- Full LAZ point decoding needs LASzip or LAZperf-style decompression, which is heavier than a quick mobile summary.
- A local structure summary helps confirm bounds, point counts, and VLR clues before using specialist GIS tools.
What OpenOnPhone does not do
OpenOnPhone is for quick local inspection. It does not replace the original professional app for editing, conversion, exact layout, formulas, measurements, security review, or full workflow features.
MIME examples
