Welcome to the Arfordir Penfro Lidar Portal!
The portal has been created to provide a unique opportunity to investigate the rich heritage of the landscape of Pembrokeshire through the lens of a very modern technology.
The part of Pembrokeshire that will be assessed for this project passes spans coast to mountain and includes evidence of how people have lived and worked here through the centuries. In the lidar we can trace prehistoric defended enclosures, bronze age barrows, medieval farmland and WWII military sites. However hundreds of sites remain to be investigated and detailed using the lidar data and this is where you can help!
In this online course we will give you all the tools you need to become a landscape detective, interpreting the lidar data to discover new features and add depth to our collective understanding of the past.
