Trento can be
considered as the capital of the Dolomiti mountains (look here
for a nice tourist and artistic guide), one of the most famous and
beautiful
groups of the whole Alps and the world.

This
region is located in the North-East side of Italy, about 120 km West of
Venice, and 180 km East of Milan, divided by the Adige river which runs
North-South close to the Garda lake. It takes about 10’ with the Cessna
to fly over the sadly well-known ski area of Cavalese (where the Cermis
cabin-lift was destroyed by the Prawler tactical fighter). There is
only
one airport (regional) in this scenery, (Mattarello airport, LIDT,
about
46N 11E).

Scenery technical
specifications
This scenery covers
quite an extended area (about 5,000 km2) centered around the
city of Trento. The scenery is based on high resolution photos taken at
11,000 m. Each photo (a total of 160 have been used!), with an original
size of 80 MB, has been downsampled (4.8 m/pix, corresponding to the
LOD13
directive) and rendered in summer colours. The digital terrain model
(elevation)
has been adapted from DTM data with the final resolution of 19.8 m grid
(LOD11 directive). Photorealistic buildings have been modeled in GMAXTM
from actual photographs and inspections at the airport of Trento,
Mattarello,
LIDT. A special version of an high definition geographical map has been
especially designed and digitized (courtesy of KeyMapsTM,
Trento,
Italy). The airport in this scenery is assisted with tower/ground
services
and the runway and taxiway are illuminated during night time, even if
this
does not happen in reality.
This Scenery has been developed,
tested
and made available for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002TM
and 2004TM
