If you're interested, I have a full color aerial of Whidbey and Camano Islands that's about 5 meters/pixel, very high quality. It's a 11,000 x 20,000 JPG and about 40 megs. But it only covers the islands. Or, you can find full color aerials of Seattle area at this website. http://oceanservice.noaa.gov/mapfinder/ They are probably about 8-10 meters per pixel and cover the entire Seattle area, as well as most other coastal cities of US. I also have good color aerials of Portland (7-8 m/p), San Francisco (5-7 m/p), and Los Angeles (3-4 m/p). Also, have good color aerials of entire counties of Fresno, Kern, Monterey, Sacramento, San Joaquin, Ventura, and Yolo counties in California that are probably about 7-8 m/p. I also have a full color aerial that covers about 10,000 square miles near Chicago that's probably about 3-4 meters/pixel. That one is one huge 500 meg ECW file.If you're interested in any of these let me [email protected]

FS limits the resolution of groundtextures to 4.8 m/pixel, regardless of where you get your photos from.- Martin

Well Martin I Agree Fs Only Lets You Use 4.8 pixel per meter but photos do make a diffrence in my view the air photes seem to have a better detail level then satelite photos satelite photos are basicly flat mostly doq are not..as i said in my opinon they are much betteri guess its sort to up to the individual ....hope this helps a bitDave

I was just wondering, since you mentioned you were going to use the satelite for colour anyway. I figured that since the extra detail is going to be lost anyway, it might have been easier to stick with one source. I realise there are other considerations too. It's really too bad MS doesn't let us go any higher in resolution, since I know thatmuch more detail is available on air photos. At the USGS site, they have photos that go all the way down to .25m/pixel, but these look a little grainy. I noticed that many have colour in them already, but there might be some holes that need to be filled. Here's an example at 1m/pixel:http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/55009.jpgI'm sure your project will turn out well.- Martin
