This workflow proposes R functions for checking and preprocessing Airborne Laser Scanning (lidar remote sensing) data. It is based on functions from R package lidR, and it includes the following steps:

• check the content of one file,
• create images and statistics from multiple files,
• compute digital surface models.

The following files are provided:

• Rmarkdown source,
• ALS data preprocessing tutorial in html,
• ALS data preprocessing tutorial in pdf,
• a bibliography file
• datasets required to run the source code are also available on the repository.
