Portugal Terrain
“With Portugal Terrain you get a chance to make big discoveries! You can start in the north, near Caminha, and follow the Atlantic coast until Vila Real de Santo António. You will see the beaches, the ports, the marinas, the lagoons, the coves, the estuaries, the cliffs and other landscapes that make the Portuguese coast one of the most beautiful ones in Europe”
Is it true? What we say in our web page?

Mesh
One of most important features of Portugal Terrain is its digital elevation model system normally referred to as the mesh. The mesh used in Portugal Terrain is based on data by IGeoE- Instituto Geográfico do Exército. This data is a collection of altitude points defined on a grid of 1 second of latitude by 1 second of longitude (DTED2 format). This grid spacing corresponds to 30 meter in the west to east direction by 23 meters in the south to north direction.

Waters
Another impressive feature of Portugal Terrain is the hydrographical representation of the country through the use of “vectorized maps” or VTP/LWM technology. These features comprise the definition of the coastline, the definition of lakes and reservoirs, the definitions of rivers and the definition of beaches and riverbanks. Since Portugal is a country by the sea, this aspect of the scenery could not be overlooked.

Class Scenery
Land Class Scenery is scenery that uses sets of predefined textures. Flight Simulator defines about one hundred sets of textures. Several sets correspond to metropolitan areas. Other sets correspond to urban and suburban areas. Others correspond to forests. Others correspond to fields and so one.
In Portugal Terrain 12 sets are used. They are shown in the legend of this picture.

The road system used in Portugal Terrain has 2 requirements:
•To allow VFR flights following the road system;•To be compatible with the Autogen scenery

Conclusion
Portugal Terrain scenery can be used as a base for other sceneries and does not contain 3D objects except in very few cases …
… but you can add them yourself. See how C:\SBuilder\SBuilder.exe
