[Flightgear-devel] Georegistered imagery

2004-05-25 Thread Corrubia, Stacie K
Is it possible to bring in either raw or TIFF imagery to the flight gear environment? The imagery has been georegistered and is part of a set of stereo pair images used to create 3-D models and DEMs. Can the imagery data (as well as 3-models and high resolution DEMs (3 meter DEMs) be overlaid o

Thank you for the quick reply! Is a circle with a 4.5mi radius small enough to model without bogging down the system? We have a NVIDIA Quadro FX 1000 video graphics card. So I should be able to bring in my high resolution imagery and be able to orient it and place it at the correct Lat/Lon?

[Flightgear-devel] Apple compilers

I'm not an Apple guy, so I can't test this for sure, but can someone tell me if it is still true that some Apple compilers that are used by FlightGear developers still do not have this function: inline char* gcvt (double value, int ndigits, char *buf) ?? Thanks, Jon _
