      summary: Retrieve LIDAR Status
      description: 'Report whether the elevation (LIDAR/DSM) data selected for a design is out of date

        relative to the imagery selected for that design, along with the capture date of

        each and the imagery resolution.


        ---


        Use this before running AI Roof to predict output quality: a design whose elevation

        data is out of date relative to its imagery is likely to produce a poorer roof model.


        Note that "out of date" is a comparison *between the two sources*, not a judgement

        about whether either is current in absolute terms. Two sources captured at the same

        time agree with each other even if both are old, so read `capture_date` alongside it.'
