Description: A set of tools to process and calculate metrics on point
        clouds derived from terrestrial LiDAR (Light Detection and
        Ranging; TLS). Its creation is based on key aspects of the TLS
        application in forestry and ecology. Currently, the main
        routines are based on filtering, neighboring features of
        points, voxelization, canopy structure, and the creation of
        artificial stands. It is written using data.table and C++
        language and in most of the functions it is possible to use
        parallel processing to speed-up the routines.
