Ketchikan and Annette Island, Southeast Alaska Background Bitmaps

File Description:
This package DOES NOT contain finished FS scenery products! Instead, the three bitmaps (N54.3-55.4 W130.6-131.9) are meant to be used for FS landscape scenery design with Ground2K4 (by Christian Fumey) or similar utilities. Source data are public domain Landsat 7 TM satellite images, at 15-m and 30-m ground resolution. I used professional GIS software for the geographic transformation to lat/long-WGS84 projection, and photo processing software for channel merging and image enhancements. Each image has been tested in Ground2K4 for accurate placement. Note: these images have been ECW-compressed and need special (free) software for decompressing (instructions included).

Scenery Enhancements for the Innsbruck (LOWI), Austria

File Description:
New roads, railroads, streams, river, landclass, and waterclass for the Innsbruck area, Austrian Alps. Based on 30-m and 10-m satellite imagery. Not a finished product but rather a "Sunday afternoon" project :-) to illustrate the visual improvements that can be achieved with a few hours of time commitment and the help of the wonderful Ground2K4 by Christian Fumey. The scenery looks best with one of the SRTM-based add-on meshes. I have included my Ground2K4 source code so that interested users can improve on and expand the project area (requires a separate download of my pre-processed satellite imagery).
