Locating Buildings in Lidar

[rjwils30]

Hey,

I was wondering how people are locating buildings in Lidar. I'm working on the course I grew up playing and there's quite a few houses around the course. Would like to find a way to locate them on the plot. Do I have to trace everything in OSM? IS there a better way?

You can just place the houses/buildings using Google Maps/Google Earth Pro as a guide or you can spline them in on OSM, check the box in Chad's to import buildings and it will make flat shapes on the surface using the cart path texture that you might/will have to delete (very time consuming) ... IMO just use one go the Google products.

Ok thanks for info. By using google do you mean just eying it?

Yes sir, it's easy to do them that way.
