February 17, 20215 yr On the first region based world update we had Japan. Which had many things included, one of them being photogrammetry cities. Then we had the USA and it had no photogrammetry cities but a couple handcrafted airports etc. Then, today we have the UK world update and again a lot of things including some airports, poi’s, and again photogrammetry cities. why did the USA world update not include photogrammetry cities? If you look at the content manager you’ll see Japan photogrammetry cities and uk photogrammetry cities but not USA. Did I miss them?
February 17, 20215 yr I guess USA already had a lot of photogrammetry cities? Andreas Stangenes http://www.youtube.com/user/krsans78 Add me on gamertag: Bullhorns78

The answer is simple: Japan had ZERO photogrammetry cities before its update, and the UK had TWO. The US has more than 100 photogrammetry cities out of the box. There was simply no need to add any.
February 17, 20215 yr Look here - USA has by far most 3D cities already https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2020/08/18/all-341-photorealistic-cities-in-microsoft-flight-simulator-2020/ Thomas Derbyshire

It wasn’t intended. Eventually they will fix it.

February 17, 20215 yr Author I know the USA came with a ton of photogrammetry cities, I just noticed the other 2 updates came with some so maybe the USA one did too. Also, as an American who has traveled to close to every country on earth (about 85% of them) and every continent including Antarctica, yes I’m well aware there is a world outside of the United States. have a wonderful day!

As of now the U.S. is more than adequately represented in that particular field. Japan and the UK weren't. So that is why they got at least some, even if the number is still miniscule and far below what is actually available out there.
