I found, while working on a terrain following/avoidance system for 
some of the aircraft I've done, that the Nasal geo.elevation(<lat>, 
<lon>) function will return the height of buildings or other 
structures e.g. bridges located at that <lat>,<lon>.

There are not any in-built FG scanning schemes/mechanisms though, so 
you'll have to design and implement one in Nasal to fit your needs.

Have a look at the cvs BAC-TSR2 TFA nasal stuff to see the simple 
look-ahead scanning schemes I've done.  Both of the schemes I've 
used just perform a single track look-ahead scan, compensated for 
yaw but not for turning flight (yet).
