I don't know if Tony has been on vacation or what, but this morning I used the SpaceWeather form to submit Tomás' unique photo, and poof! No more Cicadas! Tomás also has written an English language version of his webpage: http://atm.zaciatok.sk/ A movie (requiring a DivX decoder, it appears) is available from there also. His precise location, in WGS84 coordinates, is still a little murky. According to Arnold Barmettler, most Slovakian maps use a non-standard projection (i.e., a locally best-fit to the Earth's surface using a cylindrical or conic section). Arnold uses 90-meter resolution SRTM-3 Digital Elevation Model data for CalSKY's elevations (~50 GB for worldwide coverage!), so I suggested that he use it to create a WGS84 contour map that could be correlated with Tomás' hiking map: http://www.visualizationsoftware.com/3dem.html https://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1082960&forum_id=213191 Ain't there great stuff on SourceForge.net? ;-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
