Taking advantage of the license change of OpenStreetMap, a project to improve the Iberian Peninsula (Europe) has started. This area includes the continental territories of Spain, Portugal and Andorra. The project uses the data from CORINE database for the land use, and OpenStreetMap for the landmass and roads. Moreover, the models of Barcelona-LEBL, Reus-LERS, Menorca-LEMH, Valencia-LEVC and Granada-LEGR are updated to the last version of FlightGear and included in the project files. The scenery files has been divided in 10 zones to allow an efficient management of the data. | |||
