Hi running windows,CRS showing EPSG:4326 -WGS 84 no other choice apart from No projection
Have a look at this video. It hasn't changed in years in terms of how you set it. Hopefully this will help. ua-cam.com/video/qZvKG8e71Yk/v-deo.htmlsi=IlTvxJ5RYGKHioZ2
Great tutorial Thank you for your time. Can you tell me what version QGIS you are running please it seems its been upgraded and the menus are different even at the start with the CRS, my version doesn't have the EPSG 27700 OSGB 1936 British National Grid it has only the EPSG 4326 WGS 84 Cheers
Firstly, thanks very much. I'm currently using the latest version, but it doesn't really matter. I suspect in this video it was 3.24. There is some initial setup, but it likely looks different on mine because I'm using a Mac in this video rather than PC, so the menu is slightly different.
go to Settings > Options, then navigate to the CRS tab and select the desired CRS under "CRS for New Projects
@@flatbit3090 also it may look different as there is a little bit of initial setup if I remember rightly. Like changing the panels and the view. Things I have along with the main area usually is just the browser and layers. They're the two important ones. Properties and processing you can load as and when you need them.
I don't often comment on videos, but thank you very much for this! It's something I didn't know I needed, but very much do! I have grown very tired of cross-referencing the dual box OS maps available online, which tend to be buggy/laggy for me, despite having a decent workstation. It was actually my Mom who has recently been coming digging with me and actually raised my attention to this video as it was beyond her technical capabilities, but honestly, this is very much like the old style of videos I remember watching as a teen, straight to the point and easy to follow. Thank you again, sir! I actually managed to find the known Roman fort in my area, amazing to see the map come to life when you start tweaking with all the layers!
Thanks for the really kind comment and you're more than welcome. I'm glad it was useful 😊
I just discovered your chanel, really great quality videos. Thank you. Have you ever tried FugroViewer ? I'm using it, so far the best result in just a few cliks for me. Love from France.
Why nothing happens when I ground balancing, numbers dose not change, noise still the same?
Either you're not performing it correctly and pumping the coil to the ground or your ground is the same as the default ground balance.
Great stuff, although i'm having issues with maptiler api, very flaky, some maps don't load at all, others load but tiles disappear randomly.
That's odd, I don't tend to suffer
@ yeah, it worked for an hour then gave up
@@jonescrusher1something as simple as not verifying an email address or they have had an issue, but they power the NLS maps, so typically don't have much down time. It may be something else underling.
@@unearthers looks like it was because i was using my google account to sign in, i signed up with email , verified it, seems to be working now
Nice! Thanks! 👍
Дякую 😊
Hi can you explain how you reset the default layers .. as i can see from your video the uk one is already installed on the window .. thanks
Hi, sorry but I'm not sure exactly what you mean? By default there are no layers. I have online layers in the browser area which I can drag into my layers to build up a virtual map
Thank you very much for this, unfortunately i have fallen at the first hurdle! I have Qgis Grenoble and can't find the espg 2700 anywhere on the drop down. Am i missing something? many thanks for posting,
@@Defiantlizard oh no! Are you in the UK?
It may be that you need the long term build for now if support isn't in there for some reason?
thanks for the quick reply, yes I'm uk based. I'll try the ltb and let you know!
Got it! Had to go to project-properties-crs and then it appeared in options! (Google was my friend) Thanks again for help, until the next time! Regards Tony.
Thank you for making this video, wish it had been the first I watched as it is really easy to understand, introduces useful processes, and being up to date means that qgis the software still work in the same manner that you demonstrate it.
I'm really glad it was helpful 😊
Excellent video. Do you know whether it would be able to export a PLY file ? And ( apologies if i'm getting a bit greedy here) how do you install Chat GPT ?
@@Bantammenace1903 I believe so 😊

even I felt I understood that! Thanks.
Glad it helped!
I cant get CGIS to download in win 10.

Great video. Does the defra website contain data for Scotland also or is it just for England?
I'm not sure if they're in the environment viewer downloader, but they definitely have lidar datasets for download.
The LiDAR Composite doesn’t appear to be available for Scotland.
@@davidshanks2686 it is but you have to grab the whole dataset for the relevant grid ref. www.data.gov.uk/dataset/b2a13ea4-ff37-4da9-be2e-a1bc5e5c55b3/1m-lidar-composite-dsm-dtm-for-scotland
Could you also use ChatGPT to identify possible places of interest (e.g. Roman villas) on lidar images? Interesting video again, looking forward to your next video!
@@kasperponte6423 of course it's one of the first things I wanted to tinker with. The categoric answer is no. It's too subjective where chatgpt is very general. Does it exist on ai? Yes absolutely. I can't remember her name, but an archaeologist spent 7 years building and training a model specifically to identify historic sites from lidar data. Its mega money to access of course and only available to official bodies/institutes understandably
NICE! Can you text list the commands you've done in Chat GPT? :) - cheers
I cant right this second, but to replicate the hillshade will be easy. Just upload your DEM and write: create a hillshade with a zfactor of 15 using matplotlib
@@unearthers You're a star, cheers dude
Can you find treasure with this method
Like all things it's a research tool. Using this and other methods can help lead to a much better chance of finding treasure. I have personally helped lead people to hoards and treasure finds.

Do you know how i can find lidar data for countries outside the UK? Maybe even in africa or asia if possible.
If you have a look in the description, there's a link (not maintained by me) to potential sources of lidar from around the world 🙂
Great presentation. First time messing with LIDAR, any idea what DERFA type resource works for the US? Appreciate taking the time to present this information.
Thanks very much. Sorry it was a bit rushed. I know pockets of the US have lidar data available, but in varying quality. Have a look at the link in the description for other lidar sources 🙂
In US try searching for “national map viewer”.
Love it🙏
Thanks so much 🙂
Hey, welcome back! - Great to see this, and gonna watch it later, (when my brain wakes up). Have loved/benefited from your previous videos, so Definitely sounds like one for maximum concentration... Thanks a lot in advance! Bobby 🐭

Are there other sites for downloading files outside the United Kingdom, i.e. the rest of the world, and I will not be able to download them? Thank you for your understanding
Yes there are, but some areas are limited. Take a look at my latest video uploaded today. There's a link in the description with worldwide places to obtain data

This specific video relates to UK maps. Not all countries in the world have governments who provide this data which is usually taken via aircraft. If it isn't available, then you wouldn't be able to create the maps, sorry.
للاسف يا زلمة
Ive downloaded the files on my mac, ive unzipped then and dragged them over, i get the map of Britain where you press OK but then the files dont down in the main panel as they do with yours. mine are in the layers panel and i dont seem to be able to do anything with them, they show as narrow strips of dark grey. you havent any suggestions for a mac user have you? thank you
ive sussed that bit out, now i cant get two panels to display side by side, only individually.
Hi David, you should be able to drag the panels and arrange the workspace how you want. Sorry, I'm out on the fields today, but I'll try to reply later if you're still struggling.

I've tried searching online but as I'm not really sure what I'm looking for (ie a generic term for that kind of software) I'm not having much luck. Any guidance you can offer would be much appreciated👍
Try QGIS. Have a look at my playlist for getting started. 🙂

Hi, I see you are showing Danebury Hill Fort on this tutorial. Are you from this area? I am just down the road
Hi Darren, originally yes, not too far away. If you're checking out the tutorials, head on over to the playlist and pick up qgis. A bigger learning curve but infinitely better
Unearthers get it completely. The first Deus 2 UA-camr that gets straight to the point with tips and advice. Like most watchers, I don't have the patience to watch a 20 minute video to show me the simple tips and advice I want, you somehow manage to put it over so clearly in a minute. Great work.
Thanks Arthur. I've got tons more I need to do, but it's always a time thing isn't it 🙂
How do I log finds at a specific location please? Can I tag a find with a photo too?
Hi there, it depends on how you record the finds. If you use an app where you can export gpx or kml files, then you can import them directly into qgis as a layer.
@@unearthers - At the moment I just record the BNG coordinates by photographing the find alongside a handheld GPS. In the GIS system I use at work (Global Mapper) it's trivially easy to create a point at given coordinates. I can't seem to work out how to do this with QGIS :-(
@@peterbriggs3408 ah right, ok. Yes global mapper makes a lot of things easier and it took me a long time to step away. It's not perfect, but you can edit the location of an existing point on a map gis.stackexchange.com/questions/296574/creating-a-point-in-qgis-3-2-2-with-coordinates
Yeah - spotted that one. Just seemed odd that it was so difficult rather than just a basic function
@@peterbriggs3408 there's a few quirks with qgis for sure, but it's infinitely more expandable than Global Mapper and free. My work also pays for global mapper which I do use, but I wouldn't want the licencing bill, that's for sure. If you use a GPS unit to record location, you should be able to export all of the spots as a kml or gpx file somehow. If you're recording lots of locations, I think that's how I'd do it.
my mac will not recognize the remote or the head phones. any advice.
Hi, sorry to hear that. Make sure you are using the correct cable and not using a USB hub preferably. Follow the update sequence on the online app to the letter. Good luck!
