After about 2 years time I've updated the Europe contourlines again. As they are a separate download, and each update may cause confusion - I only update them if there are significant improvements in the altitude data.<\/p>\n
The following countries have seen major updates:<\/p>\n
Germany (especially the L\u00e4nder of Brandenburg, Sachsen, Bayern)<\/p>\n
Great Britain (especially England, Wales, Northern Ireland - Scotland doesn't have LIDAR data yet as underlying data)<\/p>\n
The North of Ireland<\/p>\n
Norway<\/p>\n
Spain<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Some other countries have seen small updates. Also as mkgmap the map compiler was improved - the data size of the contourlines has decreased by about 10% even if the details are still identical.<\/p>\n
While under Windows for the Europe continent map the installer will complain if you try to install the Europe map without the updated contourlines download - under macOS you will have to update manually and not forget about it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I've incorporated all altitude data from Sonny that was published since the last updates: https:\/\/data.opendataportal.at\/dataset\/dtm-europe\u00a0<\/p>\n
(where there is no LIDAR based data by Sonny, as always I use ALOS World 3D as the main altitude data, and viewfinderpanoramas data for the areas north of N60 and South of S60).\u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
