[Flightgear-devel] Terrain errors report

[Brian S. <bsc...@us...>]

There are several huge and very unnatural walls in the Himalayas, both
running NS and EW.  I'll give the line of latitude or longitude that
the wall runs along, and the end coordinates of the walls:

(1) e86.250 (NS), from n27.875 to n28.000

  The above wall is capped on the north by an east-west wall:

  n28.000 (EW), from e86.196 to e86.348

(2) Another wall is farther west:

  n28.625 (EW), from e83.250 to e83.500

  The above wall seems to pick up again a bit farther east:

  n28.625 (EW), from e83.700 to e83.875

(3) And a final one:

  n28.750 (EW), from e83.375 to e83.500

There are also several large flat areas, for which I'll give an
approximate centre point:

(4) n28.550, e84.297

(5) n28.550, e83.830

(6) n28.670, e83.394

There are others too, but my guess is that whatever causes one of
these anomolies probably causes them all.  The data is dated October
28, 2008.
