For point cloud exports, configure the LAS/LAZ file type, version, and the desired [**Output Coordinate System**](/spatialexplorer-8-and-9/user-interface/windows/project-setup.md). If you'd like to have interval (or "flightline") information stored in the Point Source ID field of the LAS file, select your desired interval list from the **Data To Export** dropdown menu, then select one of the **Index of Interval** choices from the **Point Source ID (0-65535)** dropdown menu:

**User Data (0-255)** can be used to store a variety of different types of metadata, such as beam index or waveform deviation (Riegl scanners only). If you plan to associate this cloud with a trajectory, ensure the **Time Format** field matches the time format of your trajectory. To exclude certain point classes from the exported LAS/LAZ, deselect them in the **Classes to Export** dropdown menu.&#x20;

The **Color** field can be filled with either RGB values (**As Colorized**) or XYZ vector normal values (for surface extraction/visualization).
