Version: [6485] LIDAR Downloader UK 0.14.6 Experimental

0.14.6 - Changes from first use, to keep things simple and the data
exactly as downloaded:
- Each 5 km tile loads as one layer, read straight from the downloaded
files; only
Create mosaic and Crop to join tiles.
- A simpler, shorter panel: select and deselect icons, a data menu
that waits for a
tile, a Download button that says what it will fetch, and sections
that fold up.
- After a download: load each tile, load a temporary mosaic, or just
download.
- Crop to a site layer: only the tiles it needs are downloaded, loaded
as one layer.
- Fixes: the data menu follows the nation; Northern Ireland's links;
night aerial
photos; Welsh archive heights converted only if you agree.
0.14.5 - Metadata follows the plugin site's rules for QGIS 4 (the old
supportsQt6 flag is
removed). Nothing else changes.
0.14.4 - Passes the plugin site's Qt6 compatibility check: the code
for older QGIS 3 versions
names its settings in full, as Qt6 expects. Nothing changes in use.
0.14.3 - First public release. Find, download, organise and load LIDAR
for England, Wales and
Scotland from each nation's official service: pick 5 km grid tiles (or
go to a place, or draw
your site), choose the data (DTMs, DSMs, point clouds and bathymetry
back to 1998, and
England's aerial photos) and download in the background. Tiles load as
one seamless mosaic
per dataset, cropped to your site if you like. The download tool is
also in the Processing
Toolbox. Development history: CHANGELOG.md in the repository.
