ENVI LiDAR 5.2 Release Notes

Known Issues

ID	Description
LIDAR-68823	Anomalous NODATA stripe seen through large DEM
The generation of one DEM greater than 4GB(from a several-hundred GB project) showed an anomaly. A horizontal NODATA line is visible in the image.
LIDAR-68789	Point cloud product contains fewer points than the project it is created from
When generating a point cloud product  from an ENVI LiDAR project, a small buffer within the project’s data extent is excluded from being written to the output las file.
LIDAR-68741	Large inputs to GetPointsIn Rect/Polygon/Circle/Range crashes ENVI LiDAR
If the inputs to the GetPointsIn*functions result in memory requests that are larger than the physical memory available on the machine, the function call can potentially fail and cause ENVI LiDAR to crash. Workaround: Break up the requests into multiple smaller chunks.
LIDAR-68584	Launch Generated Products in ArcMap fails when launching a new instance of ArcMap 10.1 or 10.2
If you Launch Generated Products in ArcMap in ArcMap 10.1 or 10.2 and ArcMap is not already running, or if you choose"Start a New Instance," then the products appear in the ArcMap layer manager, but do not display in the main view. Workaround: Launch ArcMap from the Start menu before selecting Launch Products in ArcMap. When prompted choose to open the products in the already running instance of ArcMap.
LIDAR-68707	Launch IDL Workbench in Windows 8.0 requires using compatibility mode
In Windows 8.0, the IDL Workbench does not launch when you select it from the File menu, or if you right-click on a Toolbox tool to run in debug mode. An error dialog lists a file that contains details. Attempting to open ENVI LiDAR + IDL also fails to launch IDL. This issue does not occur in Windows 8.1. Workaround: Run the ENVI LiDAR executable in Windows 7 compatibility mode. Navigate to C:\Program Files\Exelis\IDL83\bin\bin.x86_64.Right-click ENVILiDAR.exe and select Properties. Select the Compatibility tab, and enable the Run this program in compatibility mode for check box. Select Windows 7 from the drop-down list,and click OK.
