Jason, It appears that because we would have to pass the license information on with your "derivative product" that scenery you create using the maps can't be used in the official FlightGear database. You could theoretically create it and distribute it yourself, but that's not the best option.
If you want to improve Sydney AND improve the FlightGear scenery, I would recommend downloading Landsat imagery and creating a custom shapefile. This doesn't fix elevation, but I don't know much about editing elevation data. Also, don't edit the existing vmap0 data - this can lead to problems - so create a new shapefile from scratch if you decide to try this approach and we can merge it in, Cheers, John ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
