[Talk-gb-westmidlands] Lidar imagery

[Rob Nickerson]

Hi all,

The tiles to zoom 18 for Ironbridge LiDAR data are now online. I have
subtracted the terrain layer from the surface layer (or is it the other way
round) leaving just the buildings and other sticky-uppy things! If you
think the full terrain layer would be useful too I can add this later.

You can view the map online at

You can add the layer to JOSM:

The data looks very good and it is even possible to see through the trees
to the paths below.

Thanks to Chris Hill (chillly) for writing simple enough instructions that
I can understand.

Happy mapping.

Rob

p.s. I've used the 25cm data so I am just looking in to adding zoom 19 as
this should provide a bit more detail.
