set_lidr_threads

get_lidr_threads

Positive scalar. Default 0 means use all CPU available. Values &gt; 1 mean
using n cores, values in ]0, 1[ mean using a fraction of the cores e.g. 0.5 = half.

threads

Set and get number of threads to be used in lidR functions that are parallelized with OpenMP.
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:openmp-utils" href="/link/setDTthreads?package=lidR&version=3.2.3&to=data.table%3Aopenmp-utils" data-mini-rdoc="data.table:openmp-utils::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.
