Terrain mesh question.

Postby michaelb15 » Fri Feb 01, 2013 6:38 am

ok I was looking for a mesh that I can use for Europe, and I found a couple that I am intrested in. But one of them doesn't make sense..

it is the "FSX World Wide SRTM 38M Mesh Europe Part 1" file

But I thought the SRTM only did 90m resolution?

and then the other files are "CGIAR-CSI v4.1 90 metre SRTM mesh for Southern Europe-2"

Which is better?

Thankyou!

Thankyou very much for the comments, but they didn't answer my question.. I am trying to compare these 2 files..

First one (the one I currently have installed)

http://simviation.com/1/search?submit=1 ... ategoryId=

and this one :
http://simviation.com/1/search?submit=1 ... ategoryId=


The second one has a much higher file size, but I am wondering if it is actually much better then the first one, as they both claim to be SRTM meshes.

Any help towards that? has anyone compared the 2?

Thankyou very much!
