set_lidr_threads

get_lidr_threads

An integer &gt;= 0. Default 0 means use all CPU available and leave the operating system
to multi task.

threads

Set and get number of threads to be used in lidR functions that are parallelized with OpenMP.
Default value 0 means to utilize all CPU available. <code>get_lidr_threads()</code> returns the number
of threads that will be used. This affects <code>lidR</code> package but also the <code>data.table</code> package
by internally calling <a rd-options="data.table:setDTthreads" href="/link/setDTthreads?package=lidR&version=2.2.5&to=data.table%3AsetDTthreads" data-mini-rdoc="data.table:setDTthreads::setDTthreads">setDTthreads</a> because several functions of
lidR rely on <code>data.table</code> but it does not change R itself or other packages using OpenMP.

Airborne LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) interface for data
manipulation and visualization. Read/write 'las' and 'laz' files, computation
of metrics in area based approach, point filtering, artificial point reduction,
classification from geographic data, normalization, individual tree segmentation
and other manipulations.
