One and the same sidebar is used to convert Image, Vector and Point Cloud resources.
Choose data type to optimize.

Set the source file or the source directory.
When selecting a source directory, all supported resource files of the specified data type inside the selected source directory and, optionally, its including subfolders will be optimized.

Note for Point Cloud data.
A Source CRS is required. If available, the CRS value is derived from the resource header or the accompanied Ord file, else the Map CRS will be used.

Set the target file. By default source name and location will be used as target.

• Add results to dataset list : Option to add the converted result files directly to the Dataset List.

Note for Point Cloud data.
The target CRS must be set, by default the source CRS will be used as target.
