File Description: The test elevation meshes for Switzerland and UK Region using the data from
NASA SRTM_V2 program ( 3 arc second resolution, about 90m grid ) was so successful that I have tried to do a new elevation file for the Seattle Region using the 1 arc second elevation from the same source ( US area only ) 30m grid resolution. Each elevation point ( 64m grid in FU3 ) is now converted from the UTM coordinate to the exact Lat/Long WGS84 coordinate and for this point the elevation data are picked up and stored.
The Geotiles.tag file residing in the /region/seattle/geos/ folder contains this data.
To benefit from this new elevation experience FIRST RENAME YOUR ORIGINAL GEOTILES.DAT FILE INTO XGEOTILES.DAT then copy the geotiles.tag from this zip into the geos folder of the Seattle region. Start FU3 and enjoy the new perfect fitted landscape. Best way is to start directly from the air and not from an airport then all airport are no more flat, have hills and holes. Models and runways are floating over the ground or are into the ground.
