2024 FREE and better LIDAR for Metal detecting with QGIS - increase your finds rate.
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
This tutorial is aimed at Metal Detectorists in the UK and around the world.
It provides ways to create better lidar maps, elevation data and incorperate old maps from ordnance survey, as well as georefference paper maps, plus create target traces you can export to use on your phone out in the field.
The aim is to provide a clearer picture of permissions and land than can be provided by online LIDAR sources and provide a way to build working projects of your permissions for research.
All software and sources are free and opensource.

Great presentation. First time messing with LIDAR, any idea what DERFA type resource works for the US? Appreciate taking the time to present this information.

Thanks very much. Sorry it was a bit rushed. I know pockets of the US have lidar data available, but in varying quality. Have a look at the link in the description for other lidar sources 🙂
Hey, welcome back! - Great to see this, and gonna watch it later, (when my brain wakes up). Have loved/benefited from your previous videos, so Definitely sounds like one for maximum concentration... Thanks a lot in advance! Bobby 🐭

It's a recap with latest software and a run through at speed of all of the basics videos I've done hence it being a 40 minute beast. Sorry about that!

@@jimbmaldon it works just fine with windows 10. I've even had it running on a raspberry pi microcompter. Just make sure you meet the minimum spec. Here's the link: grab the 3.38 MSI from here: download.qgis.org/downloads/
Great video. Does the defra website contain data for Scotland also or is it just for England?

I'm not sure if they're in the environment viewer downloader, but they definitely have lidar datasets for download.

Do you know how i can find lidar data for countries outside the UK? Maybe even in africa or asia if possible.

If you have a look in the description, there's a link (not maintained by me) to potential sources of lidar from around the world 🙂
Can you find treasure with this method

Like all things it's a research tool. Using this and other methods can help lead to a much better chance of finding treasure. I have personally helped lead people to hoards and treasure finds.
