Global Scenery Project

Introduction

This page is to discuss the viability of a co-ordinated Global Scenery Project (GSP) for FSX using FSX_KML and Google Earth.

Because FSX KML and Google Earth makes vector based scenery design easy I think there is the possibility for many users who have no or little experience in scenery design to participate in a global scenery project.

If the efforts of these users could be coordinated then it would be possible to create an large amount of accurate vector based scenery for FSX.

FSX KML could be updated to include automatic upload of completed projects to the GSP website.

Anyone have any comments on this idea?

Use of Google Maps to catalog the GSP

Google maps could be used to provide mapping capabilities for the GSP to show:-

  • Scenery released
  • Scenery in development
  • Scenery needing development

Suggested Subprojects

The GSP would consist of numerous subprojects, for example:-

  • Worlds great rivers
