NLS and LiDAR

Just noticed NLS has LiDAR on it now. Probably been there for a bit but I thought I'd mention it in case it's of interest to folk.

Thank you for pointing this out. The side-by-side Lidar/aerial plus a regular geo-referenced tab with on the same aerial and a spy lens on the OS 25 inch 1892-1914 series is just the business.

The whole Arran thing is just ace for me now. I can really get in and look at what I'm searching for.

So, cheers for flagging this one up. It is a really brilliant resource. I mean, we the taxpayers paid for it, but it is great we can now access it so freely.

Top stuff.
