I have a USGS Digital Ortho-quad (DOQ) that I'd like to use in FSX and ADEX as a background image for template purposes. Thanks to helpful threads on fsDeveloper, I've successfully re-projected the GeoTiff from NAD83 to the proper WGS84 datum. Using a simple .inf sample which Arno posted in another thread, I've successfully run the resulting .tif through the FSX resampler, and the resulting BGL file is placed correctly in the sim.
The problem I'm having, is that the DOQ is black and white (I need an old version for a period airport), and the output BGL file shows as a dark red hue (you can still see the photo details) in both the TFM viewer and in the sim. I thought it might have something to do with the NULL value, so I tried to resample a second time with that line out of the .inf file, though with the same results. My questions are 1: Can you resample a black and white image using the resample tool? and 2, can anyone tell me the correct way to do this? I've read the SDK, and can't seem to find an answer for this specific problem. I've included a screen shot from the TFM viewer, and the .inf file below.
By the way, this B&W image will be used only for template purposes in properly locating objects. It will not be used for the final ground terrain imagery.
Thanks!!
