A LiDAR landscape of the key archaeological features around Stonehenge including Stonehenge itself, The Avenue, the Cursus and numerous barrow burial mounds. The 1 metre LiDAR is only partial at Stonehenge with many of the sites to the west not included in the current opendata coverage. This is a digital terrain model version which represents the bare ground surface only so prominent buildings, trees and even the stones of the Stonehenge circles are stripped off in this case. 

Created using 1 metre DTM LiDAR opendata provided by the Environment Agency. Built in QGIS using the QGIS2threeJS plugin.

Thanks to Mike Gill of the Avon Valley Archaeological Society for the python code which converts QGIS models into a format compatible with Sketchfab.

Best viewed full screen and in HD (see options at bottom of model view). Feel free to share on various media, download, or embed on your website using the embed code.

Stonehenge LiDAR Archaeology Landscape

100 sqkm 3D lidar (dsm) landscape around the River Rede NW of Otterburn in Northumberland.

Amazing archaeology including: numerous prehistoric hillforts, settlements and field systems, two Roman roads, Roman temporary camps and forts, Medieval and later abandoned villages, fields, and much much more.

The Priddy Circles are probably Neolithic ritual or ceremonial monuments similar to a henge but this interpretation is somewhat speculative due to the presence of external rather than internal ditches.

Sorry, but no rig available due to AI scrapping from the models resource.
