    This is really cool, I wonder how old the satellite data they used is, it’s a bit unclear

    Related: Just the other day I used USGS 3DEP LiDAR data + Claude Code to get a sense for the number of trees on my property. Diffing terrain map and canopy map gives tree elevation. It was a fun project to explore, primarily because I set CC loose and said &quot;here is the bounding box of my property, pad it by 50 feet and then go absolutely nuts against government datasets gathering as much open data as you can&quot; - it figured out the rest. Dug into soil maps, historical satellite imagery, and lidar data.<p>Here are the visuals re: trees - <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;R0W4q4O.png" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;R0W4q4O.png</a>
