The LAS File Format Contains a Header Block, Variable Length
LAS Specification Version 1.2 Approved by ASPRS Board 09/02/2008 LAS 1.2 1 LAS FORMAT VERSION 1.2: This document reflects the second revision of the LAS format specification since its initial version 1.0 release. Version 1.2 retains the same structure as version 1.1 including identical field alignment. LAS 1.1 file Input/Output (I/O) libraries will require slight modifications in order to be compliant with this revision. A LAS 1.1 Reader will read LAS 1.2 (without the new enhancements) with no modifications. A detailed change document that provides both an overview of the changes in the specification as well as the motivation behind each change is available from the ASPRS website in the LIDAR committee section. The additions of LAS 1.2 include: • GPS Absolute Time (as well as GPS Week Time) – LAS 1.0 and LAS 1.1 specified GPS “Week Time” only. This meant that GPS time stamps “rolled over” at midnight on Saturday. This makes processing of LIDAR flight lines that span the time reset difficult. LAS 1.2 allows both GPS Week Time and Absolute GPS Time (POSIX) stamps to be used. • Support for ancillary image data on a per point basis. You can now specify Red, Green, Blue image data on a point by point basis. This is encapsulated in two new point record types (type 2 and type 3). LAS FORMAT DEFINITION: The LAS file is intended to contain LIDAR point data records. The data will generally be put into this format from software (e.g. -

Common Object File Format (COFF)
Application Report SPRAAO8–April 2009 Common Object File Format ..................................................................................................................................................... ABSTRACT The assembler and link step create object files in common object file format (COFF). COFF is an implementation of an object file format of the same name that was developed by AT&T for use on UNIX-based systems. This format encourages modular programming and provides powerful and flexible methods for managing code segments and target system memory. This appendix contains technical details about the Texas Instruments COFF object file structure. Much of this information pertains to the symbolic debugging information that is produced by the C compiler. The purpose of this application note is to provide supplementary information on the internal format of COFF object files.

The Application of File Identification, Validation, and Characterization Tools in Digital Curation
THE APPLICATION OF FILE IDENTIFICATION, VALIDATION, AND CHARACTERIZATION TOOLS IN DIGITAL CURATION BY KEVIN MICHAEL FORD THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Library and Information Science in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2011 Urbana, Illinois Advisers: Research Assistant Professor Melissa Cragin Assistant Professor Jerome McDonough ABSTRACT File format identification, characterization, and validation are considered essential processes for digital preservation and, by extension, long-term data curation. These actions are performed on data objects by humans or computers, in an attempt to identify the type of a given file, derive characterizing information that is specific to the file, and validate that the given file conforms to its type specification. The present research reviews the literature surrounding these digital preservation activities, including their theoretical basis and the publications that accompanied the formal release of tools and services designed in response to their theoretical foundation. It also reports the results from extensive tests designed to evaluate the coverage of some of the software tools developed to perform file format identification, characterization, and validation actions. Tests of these tools demonstrate that more work is needed – particularly in terms of scalable solutions – to address the expanse of digital data to be preserved and curated. The breadth of file types these tools are anticipated to handle is so great as to call into question whether a scalable solution is feasible, and, more broadly, whether such efforts will offer a meaningful return on investment. Also, these tools, which serve to provide a type of baseline reading of a file in a repository, can be easily tricked. -
