Motivation

The Hawaiian Islands have long been one of the showcase scenery areas with FlightGear. Unfortunately, the artifacts that were utilized to generate this scenery has been lost. This project aims to reproduce new scenery design artifacts to allow this scenery to continue to evolve.

As we look forward to a potential World Scenery 3.0 project, I foresee the Hawaiian Islands being a sandbox area to try out new concepts.

Objective

Produce high quality scenery design artifacts. Each of the islands will be reproduced using the best known practices.

Metric Objectives:

  • Base Mesh Node Quantity: 40,000 - 60,000 nodes
  • Base Mesh Error Tolerance: 3 meters
  • Shapefile Complexity: ~1,000,000 nodes or less
  • Shapefile Tolerance: 12 meters
  • Shapefile Minimum Area: 1500 square-meters

Background

Data Sources:

  • Demographic Data: SRTMGL1.003
  • Land Cover Data: NOAA C-CAP Land Usage
  • River & Stream Data: OpenStreetMap
  • Buildings, Roads, Bridges: osm2city based on OpenStreetMap
  • Obstruction Data: FAA DOF

Status

Kaula - High-Quality mesh with scrub land class
Niihau - High-Quality mesh and multiple land classes
Kauai - High-Quality mesh and multiple land classes
