    This looks extremely promising. I just have one question: Did you create this program, and how does the export look? I'm asking because I've been working on an expansive recreation of a region in North America, with little success getting accurate heightmap/terrain data. If this is a readily available program, it'd be a game-changer. Best of luck!

    Hey there jpod74,

    Yes, I created the program and it is still a work in progress. I am working on the exporting process now but there are some big decisions to make. I can confidently say and I am able to generate an accurate terrain heightmap but only without any textures. However, I am working on a tool to apply textures from the satellite image properly. The interface in the screenshot has already had several updates.The goal of this program is to generate a completed map in beamng with a single click. However, I may add the separate functionality to just export the terrain by itself for people who want that feature.
