This plugin generates a three light exposure hillshade (shaded relief by combining three light exposures) using
as input LiDAR classified data (ASPRS classification / *.las format) or a Digital Terrain Model (DTM) in
raster format (GEOTiff / ASCII). The three light exposures combining method is based in Gantenbein (2012): <(http://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2012/1171/)>
You can use LasPy Library to process LiDAR data (ASPRS las format). From version 2.3.0 user can generates a terrain hillshade and a surfaces hillshade (only with LasPy processing mode). The surfaces hillshade is generated using only the first LiDAR returns.
