TransDEM: Step-by-Step
Description:
Planning a prototypical Route? Not sure if TransDEM is for you?
If so, check out TransDEM: Step-by-Step.
Part 1 Lays out a simple, step-by-step method of creating, and Importing into Trainz, a Basic TransDEM Route, including the required DEM, Raster Map, and Vector Route.
Part 2 Is all about easily creating overlapping satellite images along your entire route using TransDEM's game-changing Map Tile Method. No longer will you be faced with the tedious task of manually creating multiple Basemapz for your satellite images.
As TransDEM’s creator, Dr. Roland Ziegler has said,
“TransDEM’s Map Tile Method of creating overlapping Ortho images along your entire route is by far the easiest and quickest method there is.”
So, if this subject interests you, check it out, and let me know what you think.
Note: This Tutorial assumes TransDEM is completely installed, along with all the add-ons included in the Ziegler Tools folder.
