Earth Bathymetry Question

[Ozark]

Hi all

I just downloaded the Earth Bathymetry map found here:
http://snowy.arsc.alaska.edu/nasa/topog ... 801.bin.gz

I followed step by step the directions according to this post using Fridgers code:

http://www.shatters.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10071&start=15

And this is the result. I am no expert on Bathymetry, but this looks nothing like the other images i have seen.





I've tried one 16k png image and tried virtual textures with the same exact results

Has anyone had the same issue,or is this actually what it is supposed to look like? I have tried 3 times with the same results.

There is a typo in the command Fridger used on the above post. Try

Code: Select all

gzip -cd < gebco_bathy.21601x10801.bin.gz | resc2pow2 21601 1 | nms 6378.140 16384 2.7 > gebco_bathy_nm16k.ppm

EDIT: I repaired the typo on this post to avoid confusion SORRY

It's amazing how 1 pixel can make such a huge difference!
