Where can I find northern italy aerial pictures for to
construct flight simulation scene ?
If I can find multispectral flora pictures , i would be glad.
If everything comes cheap or free , I will be very happy.
And I need sedimentary analysis of rivers , their path 200
years ago and wood history analysises.
re flight simulator stuff, you can try NVIZ's keyframe animator tool
for making fly-by movies, and also NVIZ's "flight mode" mouse
controls.
I have long wondered about exporting GRASS maps to FlightGear using
the TerraGear scripts but have never got around to trying it. Then
you can fly around your maps in a real flight simulator.
http://www.flightgear.org
http://www.terragear.org (site down? try internet archive or google
cache)
you can get basic data from VMap0 (see grass newsletter articles),
SRTM elevation, and LANDSAT image coverage (r.in.onearth addon
script and/or r.in.wms).
all free,

I just would like to add that FlightGear has a very active community.
One of the issues that has come up on the mailing lists, on occasion,
is the source of map data, and how to process that data so that
FlightGear can use it. GRASS has been discussed in that context.
I would suggest that this is potentially a nice place for two very
unrelated opensource projects actually have some overlap and some
potential benefits from each to work together.
