Re: Downloading historical maps form browser

Please ignore previous comment about 3d LIDAR tiles. I didn't appreciate that the generation of the tiles involved 2 passes and that the trainz importer , on the second pass, takes hours to generate the complete tile.

the LIDAR dem files are presenting problems when trying to create 3D UTM tiles. The first tile is OK but the following tiles are without the IM files and runs for hours.
The LIDAR files have points every 2m
The 2D tiles are ok

Re: Downloading historical maps form browser

As well as looking at raster maps downloads I have been looking at downloading LIDAR dem maps. They use a tif file format that Transdem does not understand. I can convert the tif files to asc files which Transdem does understand but it would be nice to be able to inport the tif files directly ...

Thanks for the input. Rather than manually geo-referencing each downloaded image, I want to automate it. Can anyone point me to some code that translate lat/lon to WGS84 format. With the translation code I can generate the trf file as I download the images.

Regards
Mike
