Resolution (and type) of DEM Files (.tif vs .hgt)

[christofhapp]

Hi,

first of all, i love your app! I use it since many years.

Recently, the altitude information recorded by governments got better and better. The state released 1m .tif files as elevation model.

Is it possible to change Orux Maps in a way to use these files as DEM information?

I tried 0.5' .hgt files and i found that only 1.0' files work.

Thank you!

Hello!

The app should work with 0.5" .hgt files (at least the Google Play version).

.tif is not a good format for accessing randomly to the altitude of any point, a requisite for using that files as DEM source.
