You may need to re-register for these services (using the same credentials). Registering also gives you the access to the Marketplace feature within MapInfo.

New LiDAR tools:
Surface Analysis – Provides limited triangulation capabilities to a standard MapInfo Pro user – more available in Advanced.
Tree Canopy Analysis – Enables three different methods for canopy cover analysis.
These features allow you to take in numerous LiDAR .las or .laz files and process them. The Surface and Tree Canopy analysis requires the raw LiDAR data, which contains additonal readings to just a height value. In our tests with the open data from the Scottish Remote Sensing Portal revealed that those laz files had already been sanitised.
