View Full Version : More satellite images for SeeYou

The site now has new satellite images of Italy and Slovenia.
Download them, as well as the UK, the Alps, Germany & Surroundings, Spain &
Portugal, the Czech Republic and California & Nevada from www.starer.co.uk.
If anyone has requests for coverage of areas not yet available, please post
them here. I will treat the results as a vote and process images in order of
popularity. Meanwhile I will cover France, Belgium and the Netherlands next.
An item of news; it appears that public domain images dating from 2000
should be available soon from the NASA site. However it's not clear if these
will still be false colour or whether the resolution will be higher than the
1990 set that forms the raw material for the current images.

Hi David,
The gliding season is just beginning in Australia!! Your wonderful
images would be a great help.
The region of mountainous country around the border of Victoria and
NSW is very popular for pilots in those states and would be great in
3d presentations (it includes Australia's highest peaks). These
mountains are frequently flown in the sector North and East from a
point about S37.5 E146.0, especially around the valleys of:
S36 44.0 E147 10.0 (Mt Beauty)
S36 43.2 E146 53.6 (Porepunkah)
The sector (North and) West of the above point is important too -
but is mostly flat country - would be great if you can include that
too, especially for International pilots who come for long distance
flights from Tocumwal (S35 48.6 E145 36.2), etc.
Others more familiar with gliding in the more Northern areas of the
East Coast of Australia will no doubt be adding their special
regions . . .
Oh, there are three gliding clubs based just West of Melbourne
(Bacchus Marsh S37 44.0 E144 25.3) which are important for training
and introducing new pilots to our sport. A patch that included
Melbourne city and the bay that it is built around, and to the West
say 300km would be very useful for attracting younger members to
participate.
Thanks from us Aussies for your splendid contributions David,
Kind regards,
Jim Kelly

Jose,
Go to www.starer.co.uk and click the Spain & Portugal link near the top left
of the screen, or scroll down to the Spain & Portugal section.
You can either download horizontal strips as zip files one degree at a time
(these are in the leftmost column of the table) or individual one-degree
tiles. I suggest initially choosing tiles in the general area where you fly
as the whole of Spain and Portugal is a very large amount of data. It is
easy to add others later. You also need to download a file called
iberia.mds; you will find a link to this just above the table of images.
Save all these files into a single folder.
Then follow the instructions very precisely on installing the images in
SeeYou.

Arizona and southern Utah when you get a chance - though
I'd recommend the Aussies and Kiwis get short-term
priority given the season.
