I think it is longer than three years ago., maybe five or so. I think it was not LiDAR they used, but GPR, by the "Handcart" method ...and you cannot use handcarts in the jungle up there. GPR to hire/use/process is very expensive and takes some time. With LiDAR you can have the results in a day.

Correction.... You are correct, it was LiDAR and it was the Angkor Wat work.
