I have been learning how to create DEM baseboards and have been successful at creating them in MICRODEM, converting to TGA's and utilizing the HOG to create the baseboards. But two problems have emerged:
1) Furrows appear that are not topology. They appear to correspond to the grid lines that appear on the mini map view (Baseboard Boundaries), Not everywhere, most notable in hilly terrain.
2) Certain colors, bright red for interstate/highways, dark blue for water or riverbed in this case, (Needles Sub), are invisible on the baseboard, highway, or the same color as the railroad, teal, in case of the water. But in the mini map view the colors are displayed correctly.
The only tutorials I found for Microdem are older, TR2004, so I had to figure a few things out on my own, maybe not so well. I'm merging about 4 to 5 BLOCKS or DEM files that correspond to the route. Any advice or link to more up to date info would be greatly appreciated.
