I'm trying to use the Python extension for PDAL to read in a laz file.
To do so, I'm using the simple pipeline structure as exampled here: https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/303334/accessing-raw-data-from-laz-file-in-python-with-open-source-software. It would be useful for me, however, to insert the value contained in a variable for the "filename:" field. To do so, I've tried the following, where fullFileName is a str variable containing the name (full path) of the file, but I am getting an error that no such file exists. I am assuming my JSON syntax is slightly off or something; can anyone help?
pipeline="""{
"pipeline": [
{
"type": "readers.las",
"filename": "{fullFileName}"
}
]
}"""
