NLS and LIDAR

The links in the list below lead across to the National Library of Scotland maps side by side page. In addition to showing modern satellite images alongside the historic OS maps, this page now also allows the selection of LIDAR imagery. LIDAR is  light detection and ranging mapping using a scanning laser. The LIDAR images are really  useful for locating evidence of mine shafts, tips and openworks.
