A project is under way to digitally map every grave in the Church of England’s 19,000 graveyards. Researchers will visit the sites wearing hi-tech backpacks each containing two laser scanners, five cameras, and GPS tracking sensors. It is hoped that the seven-year project will benefit ancestry researchers, organisations like Historic England and anyone wanting to find out where their relatives were laid to rest.
