Map tile servers Virtual Earth/G Maps Orthophoto altitude

#1 Post by Belgian46 »

Hello everybody,

When using Map tile servers Virtual Earth or Google Maps, you have the option to use Orthophoto tile type.

In Google earth - in the right bottom corner you can see the eye altitude of the image

Does anyone know, if a formula is available to calculate the altitude of the Orthophoto you see in the big screen.

I'm using 17 as Zoom max and also 17 as Zoom level in the scale box. Global scale factor is set at 10000.

Thank you.

Best regards

Kurt
