Re: Lidar DEM request

Hi Linkster Just got home from holiday and first thing I did, fire up PC and load up Murcar Links. Oh my god !!! It's like I'm back there ! Stunning accuracy with data from 2008 !! Do courses with more up to date LIDAR come out even better ? It's a stunning method, well done for working it all out. ...

Lidar DEM request

Hi Linkster

Would you have the time to do a DEM for me?
It's for a Scottish course called Murcar links near Aberdeen.
If you could I would be very grateful.

I tried sending a message earlier but I'm not sure what happened to it.

Many thanks

Re: How do you create those DEM's

Hi Morvio

Linkster has said that he is going to produce a tutorial on how it is done.
I hope he does because I've analysed his rendition of Augusta and it is pretty accurate !! Amazingly so.

Re: Using LIDAR DEM for Real Courses

Hi Linkster
A tutorial would be great. Im guessing I'm not the only guy who would love it. It sounds like an amazing process and chapeau to you for figuring it out.

Re: Using LIDAR DEM for Real Courses

The LIDAR data from USGS or uk lidar sites comes in a form the APCD does not recognise. Linkster has found a way of manipulating the data in a prog like QGIS to get the data into a format that APCD accepts. That's the process we are talking about.
I think that's right.

Re: Using LIDAR DEM for Real Courses

Hi Pete.
AorGuy and myself are talking about a tutorial to get lidar data in a suitable format for importing into APCD.

Re: Using LIDAR DEM for Real Courses

Hi AorGuy

I dont think so. I'm keen to find out how to do it as well.
I suspect Linkster is just too busy

Re: Linkster's LIDAR tutorial

It does kinda burden Linkster with a possible lot of work.
