Its been a long time since no one wrote something here...Hi all, I am just looking for a challenge and I decided to do some small scenery for my area and I started reading around but I was never able to get answers so I decided to ask them here where there`s the right people.To cut the reading short, if there is a tutorial on how to do ultrahigh photorealistic scenery for FSX, I can start with this. but I couldn`t find anything in the last 2 days.I know where I can get 1arcsec srtm data and I found also a place with 1/3arcsec data (USGS) but this time I am not too sure yet what type of format it is nor if it is useful. Maybe someone know the answer to this. On this USGS site, there is even more precise elevation data such as LIDAR measurement. But I haven`t found a converter for that type of precision. What I was able to find was at best 1arcsec to bgl converter. but nothing that can deal with this precision.They also seems to provide some satellite imaging but at this point I didn`t look too deep into this yet.Also, from what I know, there is no point in let say having 10m precision if the overlay scenery is precise at 30m. The area I am looking to work on is nearby an airport so I would prefer to use as accurate as possible for the scenery. I am not planning to create an area where I`ll be flying over at 40000ft and it will be limited in size as well. I`ll be glad to get any kind of help on this.cheers,Stephane
