30m Mesh

Hi all,
I see there's a new freeware mesh to download here at Simviation, courtesy of Raimondo Taburet. Now, on his own site he has a 76m freeware mesh to download, so, is this the same mesh with a typo in the description or an actual improvement? I've downloaded it from fsproject once, I don't really want to download 400Mb or so again if it's the same thing. Does anyone out there know?
cheers
Chris

mmm... me thinks you should stick to the original - which is probably the same -- people get told things ...  8-)

Actually - if it IS 76 - Q is : Is the Stephen Rothlisberger 70M mesh compatible with FSX? - .

I'll contact Steve

Good Day;

The new srtm - is designed using the srtm version 2 - and J. DeFerranti elevation data - therefore is far better than any srtm mesh designed using the srtm models version 1 - where more artifacts are present on data - take also in consideration Johnathan did a great work in producing new and re-constructed srtm dem - those where not yet available when any version 1 srtm come out on the net - and this srtm mesh do included all data Johnathan have produced up to date.

all srtm mesh - is 76 m - - - - 70 m srtm mesh do not exhist ! as resample can not compile mesh files at 70 m - therefore the 30 head on this mesh is not actually correct as it is a 76 m srtm 3 version 2 mixed with J. De Ferranti models - this is the best combination of elevation models we currently have to design worldwide mesh
