description=Search, load and download Kentucky From Above imagery, elevation and LiDAR via STAC.
about=Search the Kentucky From Above STAC API (and, experimentally, other public STAC APIs) for imagery, DEM and LiDAR tiles within an area of interest. Add tiles to the map by streaming COG/COPC files, download them, combine them into GDAL VRT mosaics, MosaicJSON, titiler server mosaics or Virtual Point Clouds, clip them to your area of interest, or export a notebook/Python/shell script that downloads them. Requires PDAL (included with QGIS from OSGeo4W) on PATH for LiDAR clipping and virtual point cloud options; everything else uses QGIS's bundled Python, GDAL and network stack.

changelog=0.1.7 - Hovering the map highlights tiles in the results list and selecting footprints selects them; reliable result checkboxes; result JSON card links to download, copy the URL of or add each asset to the map, and can be pinned, moved and resized.
  0.1.6 - Another STAC API's collections are listed on both the Raster and Point Cloud tabs, so you pick the tab.
  0.1.5 - Other STAC APIs get Raster and Point Cloud tabs (with all the LiDAR options); clicking a result tile now toggles just that tile, so several can be selected without Ctrl.
  0.1.4 - Declare qgisMaximumVersion 4.99 so the registry offers the plugin to QGIS 4 (it was capped at 3.99).
  0.1.3 - Supports QGIS 4 (Qt6). Other STAC APIs now get a single Collections tab instead of the Imagery / DEM and LiDAR tabs.
  0.1.2 - Style fix flagged by the registry's code check (no behavior change).
  0.1.1 - Security hardening: resolve the PDAL executable explicitly, refuse non-http(s) STAC URLs, log (instead of silently ignoring) GDAL setup failures.
  0.1.0 - First release: STAC search with date/cloud/sort filters, streaming and downloads, VRT / MosaicJSON / server mosaics, Virtual Point Clouds (with build options), AOI clipping, Azure (Planetary Computer) and s3 support, and Export as script.
