GM_LidarExtractFeatures

Automatically extracts vector features (buildings, trees, etc.) from the classified Lidar points in one or more layers. New layers are created and added to the active layer list. If aOutput is provided, the layer handles that are created are stored there are well. Those layers are the caller's responsibility and must be closed with GM_CloseLayer when you are finished with them.

If you want to only classify a subset of the points in a cloud, first use GM_CreateLidarQuery to build a set of the points that you want to classify, then use GM_LidarExtractFeaturesFromQuery to extract the features.
