Oh, I should add that I don't think there's a simple mechanism for real-time determination of the terrain height at the vehicle's location. I think you'll have to use predetermined profiles in order to keep it at ground leve. On 6/23/05, Corrubia, Stacie K <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > To go along

You can check if fgsd is correct by importing a map that has both UTM33N and longitude/latitude markings. You calibrate the map with the UTM coordinate system, and then over the mouse on the main window to see if the reported latitude/longitude ( in the status bar ) are correct according to the sec
