The mass generation is our goal, but we are currently still in an experimentation phase. The results, however, seem promising, as can be seen in the Oshkosh scenery and the Berlin scenery. I am also working on a rebirth of the South Germany scenery based on this approach, but as for many contributors here, my time is limited and only sporadically available in the required amounts. ;-) >> The other part of the data is from the U.S. Census Bureau TIGER dataset, >> which is highly detailed and accurate, but only available for the US (or >> even only parts thereof, not sure currently). > Ouch, I'm mostly interested in Europe (Sweden mainly). Yeah, that's also our problem... > OSGeo? Who are they? http://www.osgeo.org/ It is the Open Source Geospatial Foundation, which organises a lot of different OSS GIS projects as well as efforts to acquire freely available geodata, such as our classification project. > Also where can I get the scenery, the link "The scenery is available at > ftp://ftp.uni-duisburg.de/FlightGear/Misc_rag/scenery/landsat_oshkosh." > redirects to a German page (http://www.uni-duisburg-essen.de/materialtechnik/) > that I can't read... :( Ups, sorry, I though I had fixed that. The text gives the correct link and the actual link should be fixed now.
