Global mapper software - useful for Falcon, or not?
-
Using Global Mapper…handy !
-
my guess is that it won’t work because of the way falcon handles sceneries/theaters but give it a try.!

For some functions it surely will work. There’s more than one way to skin a Cat!!;)

@RAM22:
Doing a real quick check on the web site I see it supports the Gridded Elevation Formats - Arc/Info Export Format (E00)
That’s a start, its what Dem2terrain requires.GM supports the import of Arc/Info Export Format (E00), but you can’t export as *.e00.
I’ve tried to filter the features of DNNET, for example the “1. = Stream, river, channelized river”,
to decrease the river lines, which worked fine, but no export to *.e00.Drainage layer Coverage name: DNNET Feature class type: Polygon Items, codes, and values DNPYTYPE Drainage feature type Code Definition 1\. = Perennial inland water. Includes perennial lakes and streams, estuaries, lagoons, unsurveyed perennial streams, reservoirs, and navigable canals 2\. = Nonperennial inland water. Includes nonperennial and seasonally fluctuating lakes and streams, wadis, sabkhas, and abandoned navigable canals 3\. = Wet sand. Includes wet sand and sand deposits in and along riverbeds 4\. = Snowfields, glacier, ice fields, or ice caps 9\. = None. This code is used for any area that is not water, wet sand, snowfield, glacier, ice field or ice cap. Polygons with this code would include the background polygon, islands within inland water or ice areas, land areas enclosed by stream or river courses, or ocean areas. Coverage name: DNNET Feature class type: Line Items, codes, and values DNLNTYPE Drainage line type Code Definition 1\. = Stream, river, channelized river 2\. = Inland water body shoreline 3\. = Wet sand limit 4\. = Canal, aqueduct, flume, penstock, kanat, or similar feature (clearly identified by ONC map annotation) 5\. = Glacial limit 6\. = Snowfield, glacier, or land ice water ice or ocean limit 7\. = Ice free limit (land/ice line) 8\. = Connector (used to separate inland water from open ocean or ocean ice)* 9\. = Tile boundary or null arc *These lines were derived from the border between the shade for inland water (dark blue) and open ocean or ocean ice (light blue) on the ONC sheets. The cartographic judgements applied to the use of open ocean versus inland water shading in near shore situations varies from sheet to sheet, DLNSTAT Drainage line status. Code Definition 1\. = Perennial (used for rivers and streams only) 2\. = Nonperennial (used for rivers and streams only) 3\. = Definite (used for inland shorelines only) 4\. = Indefinite (used for inland shorelines only) 5\. = Unsurveyed perennial 6\. = Unsurveyed nonperennial 7\. = Abandoned 8\. = Under construction 9\. = Suspended or elevated 10\. = Underground 11\. = Above ground 88\. = Tile boundary 99\. = None (no status attribute associated with feature)
Finally I ended with just a exported *.bmp of huge rivers and lakes,
for use with CATE or as reference for handtiling.Maybe it is possible to export to *.e00 using GM, but I did’nt found a way.

IIRC we work with DEM so this puppy does export DEM files…
-
And … ?
Sent from my laptop using keyboard.

does the old DEM source work?
IIRC it doesn’t.
So with this tool everything is back to the track? -

IIRC it doesn’t.“Joe Labrada” was so kind to upload DEM of the world for use with
dem2terrain.
… should be in your hotlist, No?So with this tool everything is back to the track?
Your “?” at the end shows you’re not sure?
Have you been able to create DEM files for use with dem2terrain?
(in the correct format)Cheers,

Didn’t tried it. Just wanted to let ppl know about it.
And yes that link should be on my hotlist, thanx for pointing out.Στάλθηκε από το MI 5 μου χρησιμοποιώντας Tapatalk

Added it to the hotlist m8.
Send from my work laptop using keyboard mouse monitor internet connection and my eyes, hands and brain, a desk a chair, electricity… :lol:

Sounds expensive, LOL.

Does anyone used it to export some good sattelite images for tiles? and how?
-
SASPlanet is the way to go IMHO.
http://www.sasgis.org/
Used and highly recommended. The quality of sat imagery varies depending on the source and world region. SASPlanet allows choosing from hundreds of providers. -
