EPSG HELP: Ashley Plantation, Daleville, Virginia

[m2wlk]

Hi folks

Firstly thank you for the amazing tool, has helped me to create many courses in Scotland and the US.  Unfortunately I've run into a problem with a recent project:

Ashley Plantation, Daleville, Virginia

I can't locate any reference in the metadata and the projections which appear to cover the area don't show the course, or the few mapped out holes in OSM, when run through the tool.

I've tried every Virginia/West Virginia EPSG i can find a reference for hoping to land on something...   I'm maybe just doing something daft.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, link to the 6 .laz files and a copy of the meta data link for one of the files below.

Thanks in advance!

Brilliant.  Thank you very much!

Some dark magic...   

Just as a potentially daft follow up, spying it's a UTM - is that an option for any dataset to find a broader UTM chunk that covers the course area or is it dependent on the type of .laz data you have...?  I'd perhaps just been lucky in finding other projections that covered smaller areas I was after in the past.

Thanks

EPSG codes are specific to the exact las files you are using. EPSG codes represent not only projection coordinates, but also accuracy range and unit of measurement. There may be times where it seems that more than one EPSG code "works," but this isn't really the case and something will ultimately be amiss. If you want to know the exact code to use, just open the las file in GIS software like ArcGIS or one of the many las header readers available. No dark magic...
