    Hi all, Since I'm on furlough I thought I'd use the time to try a route build.

    I volunteer as a engineer for King David Railways in Israel and would love to build the route for TS21.

    I'm sure I once read that routes can be built on terrains from google earth pro, but cant really find much info about it, has anyone here tried it?

    If you mean DEM data then yes you can, there's a tutorial on how to do it from Matt.

    There's also tutorials on how to set up the google maps overlay, but remember to set up a billing account as well.
