how realistic is that DEM your using?



this is the most realistic DEM i created (in normal map form, and it has some real DEM data strips mixed in)

Added after 3 minutes 55 seconds:
this is a bit unrelated to Ganymede, but i tried to PM you a question about clouds but you had no contact options in your profile, how do i contact you?

no contact options, and your "Last active" is null (-) on my end, and you were active overnight (my timezone)

It's only a pity that due to slow rotation of the Ganymede there will be photographs of one hemisphere.
