Out of my league.


I'm taking a look at it.

That's how far I got with the gateway updated layout.
The runway location agrees with the satt views.

The terrain quite does not. It seems the island drifted East. But the airport was left behind :oops:

I havent push this anywhere, I am kind of uncertain of whether it is worth.

Looking at how the terrain south the runway seemed to lift in a vertical, I feel the SRTMs are OK, but the land-class is displaced. Now you are onto QGIs, this island would be an excellent test -case to sharpen your landclasses edition skills SM.

If we gave everybody in the World free software today, but we failed to teach them about the four freedoms, five years from now, would they still have it?

Sounds rather like what happened in Hawaii -- where there was a volcanic hotspot making an island, but plate tectonics moved the islands west, and another island was made :)

But airports are not left behind in the process.

Image shows EXACTLY the problem SHM :D

Awesome.
Can you edit that QGIS?
Maybe make a little more complex landclasess? Some sand? some bushes. A few tundra in the heights?
Once we fix the landclasses, this airport gonna look way better!!
