Yeah, you can export from Radiomobile to a PNG with KML.
I could even open that image in a GIS program and project it and edit
the color of pixels, but then I can't easily re-save it in Radiomobile's
format (as far as I know).

I think Brian just posted he has a viewable file for GE, but yeah,
nothing to point and click and edit.

No graphical tool to open it with then?
I'm positive I could do what you're saying, but I'd like to be able to
delegate a trained idiot to run through an area and edit pixels.

You'd have to change a whole 30 meter bin. It is a binary file
3601x3601 bytes (to make it a grid representation). You would have to
find the "square" or bin in the grid and modify the value at that
byte position in the file.

I've been wondering if there's a tool to edit the land cover data
files. I couldn't figure out what could open or import them. I'd
like to change a few pixels to forest.

For the record that data is derived from the National Land Cover
Dataset (NLCD). That data is built using satellite and aerial data
and classifies the ground clutter for each 30 meter square. Roger
converted that data to a format similar to the SRTM file format so
that Radio Mobile can read and use it. I have attached a Google
Earth file that links to the National set if you want to just view
the data and compare it to aerial images. As I recall the latest
version had some issues due to the fact that there were a couple of
extra land cover classes added and the conversion process from the
old format does not always work out exactly as desired. Also keep
in mind that due to the 30 meter square getting only one type of
classification, it’s one or the other in a 30 meter square area
where you could have both buildings and trees. In the urban clutter
class this is pretty common. Radio Mobile does loss calculations
for buildings only in that square and cannot account for a line of
trees that do not make up the majority of the 30 meter square.
Thank You,

In Mobile Radio under Internet Options. Land cover can be
downloaded from the internet and saved locally. I have mine
pointing to "Landcover - Site 2" which is

The last I remember getting data for something similar it came from
NASA. This might be a place to start:
https://data.giss.nasa.gov/landuse/

If you do a google for NASA land search you get a few thiings that
might help.

But where does the data come from? Seems like Roger was giving it
away one year at AnimalFarm. I probably got a disk but I doubt I
could ever find it.

Thats an option you select and edit into that file. I think its
all like 20 years old though on the clutter
