What exactly goes into a world update?

Featured Replies

My understanding is:

  • bush flights
  • discovery flights
  • landing challenges
  • detailed airports (large airports)
  • elevation data

Is there anything else? Is there always new elevation data? Is the satellite imagery improved? I usually fly GA so the large airports don't interest me and the various flights aren't that important to me. What am I getting in exchange for the storage space it takes up?

Custom made POI's and further photogrammetry cities.

So far, yes.

So far that was only the case in the last World Update.
