First, go to the scenery design forum and read the "beginner's guide" thread pinned at the top. Then see if that gets you started.scott s..

Hi Scott,ya i had a read off this before posting here, I guess I was a little tired or something cus I was still confused after reading it, but I think I have a better understanding second time around (didn't realise the tools were available for download on AVSIM and couldn't find them with google)thanks againalan

I'm guessing no one has written a program to somehow interface with the Google Earth data to create and compile mesh? now that would be cool....I'm having difficulty finding data sources that are greater detail than 90M...bummeralan

I haven't seen anything about the data GE is using -- I would be surprised if is better than the 90m data, except in the US (maybe even there).scott s..
