Ben Krasnow shared a practical pointer to the USGS National Map LiDAR Explorer, where users can access free aerial LiDAR point-cloud data for many regions. He gave a quick usage tip: select an area by drawing a box, then open it via the green-side button into the point-tile viewer for inspection.

I recently learned the USGS has free aerial LiDAR data for many areas. Draw a box, then click the green button on the right side and select Eptium viewer. https://apps.nationalmap.gov/lidar-explorer/#/…
