3D laser mapping reveals New Forest's hidden archaeology

Archaeologists have discovered more than 3,000 historical sites and monuments in the New Forest thanks to Lidar (Light Detecting and Ranging). The technique beams harmless lasers into the ground to build a 3D map, revealing the hidden history of the New Forest including a Roman road and prehistoric pits and mounds. The discoveries have been made thanks to the Verderers of the New Forest Higher Level Stewardship Scheme. The 10 year project is a partnership between the Verderers, the Forestry Commission and the New Forest National Park Authority, to protect and enhance internationally-important landscapes in the Forest.
