I was wondering this too, although for a different use-case. A couple years ago I was walking through a field/vacant lot not far from Centralia, WA and I came across what I think is a grave.
The (supposed) "grave" was roughly human-sized and human-shaped, the ground was concave, sunken in and deepest at the center, and it was encircled with stones that were slightly larger than grapefruit.
The reason I suspect it's a grave is because I stumbled upon a very similar-looking thing at a historical site in Tooele county Utah named Mercur cemetery.
With Lidar I could prove/disprove my grave theory, correct?
I think Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) would be better usage for this grave scenario vs LIDAR.
