Hillshades are often the most useful for interpretation. Other things might be to pull buildings from OSM into QGIS & extract maximum heights (from a DSM-DTM delta) for the buildings. I've also extracted contours at 1 m intervals & used something like the 3m contour to estimate building centroids to compare offset of OSM buildings (doesn't work for all if trees are nearby).<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Jerry<o:p></o:p></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal>On Wed, 3 Mar 2021 at 12:50, Tom Crocker <<a href="mailto:tomcrockermail@gmail.com">tomcrockermail@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p></div><blockquote style='border:none;border-left:solid #CCCCCC 1.0pt;padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 6.0pt;margin-left:4.8pt;margin-right:0cm'><div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Sorry if this has been discussed before, I've just joined. I have seen some threads from 2015 discussing the Environment Agency LIDAR data, which seems to confirm my understanding that it would be fine to use the data in OSM. Are there any tile servers available for this, or some method of adding overlays to JOSM for example? I think it would be really useful in wooded areas.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Thanks<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Tom<o:p></o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal>_______________________________________________<br>Talk-GB mailing list<br><a href="mailto:Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org" target="_blank">Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org</a><br><a href="https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb" target="_blank">https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb</a><o:p></o:p></p></blockquote></div></div></div></body></html>
