This [[:Category:Howto|howto]] describes the procedure you might follow when using [[Terragear]] on a Windows machine. If you run Unix, check the [[Using the Custom Scenery TerraGear Toolset]]-article.

That's the elevation done.

==Airports==
Now we've got elevation data, we can generate our airports.
First set the commandprompt to run from your work directory:
cd /Users/AS9423-ULT/Desktop/Amsterdam/work/
The command to create airports is "genapts". Run it without any arguments to see the various command-line options. If it is simply run with a specified apt.dat and work directory, it will generate airport layouts for every airport in the file, which can take a long time.
C:/Users/AS9423-ULT/Desktop/Terragear/genapts.exe --input=D:/FlightGear/data/Airports/apt.dat.gz --work=. --chunk=e004n52
If you are generating a larger set of scenery, then you can specify the minimum and maximum longitude and latitude. Genapts will create two sub-directories in your work directory - AirportArea and AirportObj. These define the definitions of the airport layout and any objects present (e.g. windsocks).
Right, that's the airports sorted out.
