I have a need to develop a simulation of a terrain following system.  The system is 
presented a flight corridor (start point, end point, and corridor width) and need to 
return the location, and elivation,  of the highest point in that corridor.  I 
remember seeing some discussion a while back concerning how to get the terrain 
elevation for random points, but didn't follow it too closely.  Can anyone give me 
some information as to where I can start looking?

On a related point (really, it is), if a company wanted to pay to have modifications 
made to FlightGear, is there anyone in the community that does this?  The primary 
interest is for the terrain following system, but I would love to eventually have 
JSBSim modified so I could use it to drive some GPS and inertial simulations.  First, 
I will need to test the water with the terrain system.

Thanks,

Jonathan Polley

Of COURSE they can do that.  They're engineers!
