Great!!! > To view a new fly-over animation of New Zealand on the Internet, visit > http://www2.jpl.nasa.gov/srtm/ . The flyover is very disappointing. Our old DEM could easily create the same results. A bit more interesting is the high-res (4500x5800 pixel) shaded picture of New Zealand. But I wonder what the smoothed stuff around Milford Sound is. Probably it's due to shading/reflections of the radar beam. Milford Sound is a fjord, where you have drops from ~2000 Meters stright down to the sea! (Oh, and they have very tasty crayfish in there that I had the pleasure to catch while scubadiving...) When will be the secenery for New Zealand be created? So we can have a look at the data at Milford ourselfs. Ah, there's also an airport at Milfors Sound, that can be a great starting point: http://www.world-airport-codes.com/new-zealand/milford-sound-airport-4721.html (It must be a spectacular flight to and from Milford Sound) CU, Christian -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFB3l65lhWtxOxWNFcRAnkqAJ4xiS5Q1Si00zZF6biWDAjLBpCP0ACfT4h+ sC+O307qZrK0aI4jpR1Z7Xo= =6/u0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
