togfox Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I\'m flying at 3,100m successfully, over the poles. Check your insurance cover before you try this at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmiteZero Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Thanks, Peewee. That makes it a bit difficult, but I suppose it\'s better to use the max.Better idea: Dynamically scaled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peewee Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 This is looking more and more like a map!Thanks again for your data, dvc, SasquatchM, toastar, and togfox1.Edit: Can\'t be bothered linking a more recent data set, find it yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SasquatchM Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Here is an updated render.. it may be wonky as I am tired. KSP crashed overnight so I will post my updated csv later.-edit: Slightly more awake and added a greyscale map at a higher resolution that is rotated to the correct orientation for anyone that wants to use it in google earth.

togfox Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Here is my version of the Mun Map. Most of the data points are not my own but I\'ve manipulate the drawing program for maximum effect.See those big blue spots where the altitude is zero. Well, they\'re not really zero - those are unexplored spots the orbit radar can\'t reach.You know what this means? Dinky di rover missions to those deep craters to gather real telemetry data so our map is complete. Real science missions eh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peewee Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 More data as usual.Thanks again for your data, dvc, SasquatchM, toastar, and togfox1.edit: Out of date, as usual. Find a more recent post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamBam Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 i put the module on a moon rover, and drove around a bit. it didnt seem to add anything to my data set....is flying required in order for this to work? i am having trouble getting a stable orbit around the mun in anything but a straight equatorial path.since the moon does not have any spin, it does not work to simply establish a slightly inclined orbit and let it work its way around.so, how are you guys gathering so much data?

Pita_146 Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 so, how are you guys gathering so much data?Well, I don\'t have a lot of data yet, but I dropped into a low orbit and then just left. Came back a while later and adjusted my orbit. Etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDF Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Yo dawg, I\'m not sure how to render the different map types, so could it be possible to get the options in the .exe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dvc Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Sad to say... left it for a while... but it hit some mountain... data attached Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oggula Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Wait... on a real astronomical object, shouldn\'t the poles be at a lower altitude due to centrifugal force, or am I missing something? Like come on, everyone knows Earth is an oblate spheroid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peewee Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Thanks again for your data, dvc, SasquatchM, toastar, and togfox1.Sad to say... left it for a while... but it hit some mountain... data attachedBy the way dvc, does that attachment include your old data, or is it all fresh? I didn\'t notice any repeats at the beginning/end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pina_coladas Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I\'ve got 2.9 megabytes of data I\'ve hoarded to myself if anyone wants it. I had two instances of ksp set up to run all night but of course windows update rebooted my computer an hour after i went to bed.e: attached image Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peewee Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Awesome, another polar orbiter!Thanks again for your data, dvc, SasquatchM, toastar, and togfox1, and extra thanks to pina_coladas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kreuzung Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Hopefully Kerbin mapping will be added soon for those who never get to the Mun...(Yes I have read about that height issue but it whould be fun to do that with planes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

togfox Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 The crxTelemetry by Corax definately works with a rover and I have some very high detailed maps by doing this.What this thread is about is the orbital scans of the surface from an orbit ~3500m high. It has good detail but not perfect and I suspect rover scans of depressions and interesting features will still have value in a project like this.I haven\'t tried the ISA_RAM on a rover but I\'m happy to test that.

Peewee Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Added SasquatchM\'s latest data. Now 13823KB total, 685062 measurements.It\'s starting to get hard to tell where data is added on the default map. I count this as a good thing. Thanks again for your data, dvc, pina_coladas, SasquatchM, toastar, and togfox1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamBam Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 whenever i leave ksp running, it freezes up and has to force quit.any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SasquatchM Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Peewee, can you post your merged csv, mine is getting strange for some reason.edit: Nevermind, I got it back in order. Sadly the file is now too large to post as an attachment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SasquatchM Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 lol, Peewee, I just zipped my new file so i could attach it.The one I attached has been converted to comma delimited for use in quickgrid and has had the messed up data removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
