Any more Aster 19m mesh for FSX?

[dav301]

Hello.  Could you tell me when, or if, you plan on releasing any more 19m Aster products for FSX?

I'm starting to wonder about this because in the past year only a few countries have been released: Libya, Ethiopia, Madagascar, and Cuba.

That's all, just 4 countries in an entire year.

I know that the Western Europe 5m mesh was introduced as well, but this was ready-to-go data, i.e. you didn't have to do anything but repackage and resell it.

Are you going to finally produce and release the 19m Aster mesh for the Caucasus, Morocco, Algeria, etc. as you have told others you would over the past year, while at the same time telling them to "be patient"? 

Thanks.

Hi Dave,

Further production of 19m ASTER is currently in a  holding pattern due to a new, more highly-refined dataset that should become available to me next month.

The problem with ASTER data is that the quality is uneven and usually needs a whole lot of manual, time-consuming editing before released commercially.  This new dataset will be of much higher quality and I'll be able to turn them around much quicker.  There will be world-wide coverage, so the new 19m countries should be coming fast and furiously going forward.

Thanks
