The LAS specification requires that the File Source IDs and the Point Source IDs match (i.e. are the same number) when the LAS file contains data from a single flight line, drive pass, or strip of data.

This workflow is for reprojecting, shifting, or scaling in x, y, and/or z direction, for LAS data. This is useful for converting: Geographic Spatial Reference System (SRS) to Projected SRS and vice versa. Projected SRS to another Projected SRS Different measurement units: US survey feet, international feet and meters. Removing vertical bias from LAS data…

This procedure preserves any existing work – e.g. ground classification or building extraction – that has already been done on the target layer. …
