Hi, this software: <http://www.plexscape.com/> http://www.plexscape.com/ generates 1 m contourlines from google earth into autocad.
It seems quite accurate. Im using it for several months now and its just great!

Hi all, For the sake of sharing valuable information here's a link to the best topographic maps of Haiti that I've seen. I think I found the link originally(?) from some OSM Haiti wiki page (which needs a total make-over sooner than later but that's another story). The link is http://www.lib.utexas.edu/maps/topo/haiti/haiti_index.html for which I created a shorturl: http://j.mp/ <http://j.mp/haiti-topomaps> haiti-topomaps There are 84 PDFs maps available through the link, which total 655MB in size. I have downloaded all of these maps to my computer and made them more easily accessible by adding the 5 digit identifier originally at the end of the file name to the beginning of the filename, which makes them easy to find (as you can see the id number from the linked page for a given area). In case someone wants a local copy for him-/herself I have put the files in my Dropbox and am happy to share the folder w/ anyone who sends me a request w/ their Dropbox email address. Also, in case someone is interested in stiching all the maps together that is something that Seb and I have talked about and are happy to get help from anyone. (I already have access to image extracts of the PDFs that are cropped to show the map area only. ... We are thinking of creating a WMS layer of these maps -- there's a ton of data that hasn't yet been added to OSM from these.) Cheers, -Jaakko -- jaakkoh in OSM
