• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Lack of data in GeoFabrik?

Hello..

I would like to thank Mr. Arno for this "scenPro" tool and for his step by step tutorial:
http://fsdeveloper.com/wiki/index.php?title=Autogen_from_OpenStreetMap_data_with_scenProc

This morning, in a couple of hours, without having any idea about autogen, I was able to create my first autogen scenery (points, natural & buildings).
And it worked perfectly well. Awesome!!

The problem, at least in Spain, seems to be the lack of data in GeoFabrik (most of the town buildings are missing)... or I am missing something.

Any idea?

Thanks!

** It would be wonderful to have the same tool for FS9
;-)
 
Hi,

How many footprints there are in the data indeed differs per country. That has nothing to do with geofabrik, it's just data that openstreetmap does not yet have.

Maybe there are some local sources in your country where you can get vector data of buildings.

About the fs2004 version, that's on the wish list :)
