Ortho Tile Legend?

Recommended Posts

How do I tell what Ortho tiles are which?  I need to delete a bunch of them to free up space for Orbx TE SoCal.

I don't think I have the O4XP program installed anymore.

Is there a chart or legend somewhere?

Go here and enable the graticule map:

It's fairly easy to work out, X-Plane's tiles are numbered by their south-west corner. So locate the grid you want on either of the links posted, e.g. Los Angeles will be zOrtho4XP_+33-119. You can also use Google maps, scroll around and look at the URL bar, it will give you longitude and latitude of the tile. Round the latitude and longitude down one, and that's your tile
