Recommendations for vector & landclass data?

Featured Replies

  • Commercial Member

Since there's no UTX, and it's likely to be awhile before the whole world is covered in FTXG Vector and OpenLC, what are the recommendations for getting decent vector and landclass?

 

Does anyone have experience with the Cloud9 XClass regions? And is waiting for FTXG Vector going to be the only option for coastlines and roads and such?

 

Is there a list / map put together of what regions in the world are covered by freeware vector and landclass? I know of a few, but a list may be a good resource to anyone looking to improve their new P3D world. Of course there is an aggregate site listing all FSX freeware, but that's overkill if you just want to focus on vector and landclass data.

 

I guess I could start.

 

Freeware Landclass:

in fsx i use the cloud9 landclass for south america, and the asia/africa one also.  having never flown any of those places IRL i can't really vouch for their accuracy but they seem pretty decent, better than the default at least, with a bit more variety. i think they were fairly inexpensive too like maybe $10 each.

 

unfortunately i haven't really found any good water vector stuff outside of the utx packages, definitely looking forward to orbx's jumping into that scene.

I noticed that... You can cover the whole world with landclass for only $15.00.  It might be worth looking into further, since I do know the roadmap for the OpenLC products is spread out for awhile.
