I used Global Mapper software package to convert the compressed images from the FairField data set to TIFF images. I am using photoshop to view the TIFF images sent from various data sets.  I am only using ER Mapper to view the LiDAR data. I used the MS Visual C++ 6.0 package to format and partition the data.  I am using Matlab to implement the segmentation and reconstruction algorithm.
