There is the object database browser for that : http://fgfsdb.stockill.org/objects.php You can enter a filter to restrict the list and then visually compare longitude and latitude. If you look the objects you want to replace up on the page referenced above, and give me the number in brackets then it makes it very easy to replace (that number is the FAA or FCC object ID). -- Jon Stockill [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] replacing existing objects in fgfsdb
Yeap you do refer attached or [Snip] Name: Jon Stockill EMail: *disabled* I'm primarily interested in bulk population of the objects database from various data sources - if you have access to such a resource then I'd be happy to help you import it. Models will usually be the types of objects described by the datasets mentioned above, although I'll also add the odd landmark from time to time. [snip] , unless you want everything to go via Devel mailing list?

I also asked some time ago on this list for your eMail when I wanted to inform you about the corrupted Finland files (thank you for repairing it!!! Have much joy flying Helsinki). It was just by chance that I found another page on your site later where you have written a contact address. But it is rather difficult to find there. Just as a feedback as I am so thankful for your models (and objects) database! Regards Georg EDDW --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!
