Namibia, Southwestern Africa

File Description:
Replacement landclass file for all of Namibia and parts of western Botswana (S15-30 E11-25). Based on the new Global Land Cover 2000 Project data, this landclass file is still quite basic but better (I believe) than the FS original. In addition, I used Ground2K4 to more accurately represent natural and man-made features in five areas throughout the country, including Windhoek, Swakopmund/Walvis Bay, and the Fish River Canyon. Meant to be used with my Namibia LOD9 add-on mesh series. Landclass source files are included.

Central Willamette Valley, Oregon

File Description:
This package DOES NOT contain finished FS scenery products! Instead, the three bitmaps (N44.0-45.1 W122.4-123.5) 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 ETM+ 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).

North Cascades Landscape Enhancements for Vancouver+

File Description:
This is a re-issue of my previously published landscape enhancement package for the North Cascades of northwestern Washington State, us_wa_nc.zip. These files have been edited and adjusted to be fully compatible with FSAddon's "Vancouver+ Part1" product and can be used with or without FlightOne's Ultimate Terrain USA or Canada/Alaska installed. Also included are batch files to remove incompatible flatten files from Richard Goldstein's Georender 4 "Darrington Muni", published by LAGO. Please note: don't use this package unless you have a registered copy of "Vancouver+" by FSAddon!!!

Bella Coola Valley Landscape Enhancements

File Description:
One of the most spectacular watersheds of British Columbia's Midcoast, the Bella Coola Valley looks pretty boring in its default FSX rendition and the oddly shaped default Bella Coola River cuts deep into the terrain. These files provide a terrain mesh made from CDED1 0.75-arcsec data (multi-LOD, with maximum resolution of 38-m grid spacing), updated land class, water class, and seasons files, and accurate placements of lakes, rivers, streams, roads, and bridges. Also added are the glaciers of the Monarch Mountain Icefield as well as several forestry roads and clearcuts in the side valleys. Main roads have vehicle traffic moving in both directions. Coverage area is N51*45'-52*40' and W125*35'-127*25'. These files are fully compatible with other landscape enhancements for FSX, such as FS Genesis North America terrain mesh, Cloud 9's X-class, Adam Mill's ground texture replacements, or Flight1's Ultimate Terrain Canada/Alaska.

Monashee-Selkirk Region of Southern B.C., Canada Mesh

File Description:
New high-resolution (76-m) terrain mesh of two mountain ranges in south-central British Columbia, covering a 1.5-degree longitude by 2.5-degree latitude transect (N48.5-51, W117-118.5) from south of the U.S. border to Revelstoke and Glacier National Park. Visit the steep valleys and high alpine areas enclosed by Slocan Lake and the Arrow Lakes. Made from 50-m digital elevation data, resampled to LOD9 (76-m) horizontal spacing. Designed as an add-on to my LOD7 mesh of the entire province but can be used independently.

Lower Mainland of Southern British Columbia, Canada Mesh

File Description:
New high-resolution (76-m) terrain mesh of the Lower Mainland area of British Columbia, covering a 4-degree longitude by 1.5-degree latitude transect (N48.5-50, W120-124) from Bowen Island to Manning Park. It gives a much better representation of the subtle terrain in Vancouver and the Fraser Valley, the beautiful North Shore Mountains, and the extreme topography of the North Cascades southeast of Chilliwack. Made from 100-m digital elevation data, resampled to LOD9 (76-m) horizontal spacing. Designed as an add-on to my LOD7 mesh of the entire province but can be used independently. By Holger Sandmann.
