The Christchurch Rebuild

[Ian Warren]

Not an April the 1st Joke but another update http://nzff.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=...=0#entry8306616

A few screens showing the blend with ORBX NZSI and the recent autogen updates

Climbing into the port hill , Cashmere and Westmoreland districts

Moving into Hillmorton and Hoonhay .

You may be able to see the township , an agricutral university called Lincoln in the distance , that is ORBX NZSI , a very smooth blend so far .

It's good to see someone else spending the time (lots of it) placing accurate autogen. There are so many free and pay photo sceneries that might look pretty, but they're just a picture draped over mesh. Without something representing the buildings, photo scenery looks flat. Nice job. It's looking very sharp.

Be looking forward to see some off your scenery's

Wish I'd had that to figure out how to get through the first two traffic circles! It is quite accurate, amazingly so.

Though we travelled over a lot of South Island, I really liked the penensula and the area around Akaroa.

Great country and people!

Pity this I did not post this earlier , we could have had a stop and a chat and a dinner , Akaroa is another little town that requires a little TLC unfortunately not in the photo yet , heading through to that spot is Little River , a little town and from the hills above a brother who hang glides from there .

I did a version of DM as part of the Tucson/Pima County scenery a few years ago. My office was just east of the base...a great place to watch the air show without fighting the crowds The scenery covers about 70 miles x 90 miles at the widest parts.

This is how my DM looks. The base photo was done at 2m with the airports at 1m.

The photo mayhave been a little old seem to be washed out a little , but well placed AGN and the base made up for that , huge 1.2 gig file . Obviously your like myself and striving to get your hands on a good hi res photo .

That's the one. It was the USGS 2005 +/- Pima County orthoimagery.

Color correction can be tricky. I did one of the White Mountains area of Arizona with a 1m USGS Arizona that was basically green and white. The color was awful. I managed to manipulate it into something reasonably decent and was able to get some good photos at KSOW so the buildings at the airport were pretty good.

When we went through Little River the wind was blowing about 30 knots straight down the lake! Yes we drove right by Lincoln University heading over to the Banks Penensula from Arthurs Pass.
