ACKNOWLEDGEMENT TO TONINO TARSI:-
Sincere acknowledgement must be given at the start of this documentation to Tonino Tarsi for the incredible amount of work he put into developing LKMaps Desktop. My contribution has been to update a small part of the code to solve a few issues that have crept in over time as the Digital Terrain Model access method and OpenStreetMaps data processing requirements changed.
LKMaps Desktop is designed to create .DEM (Digital Elevation Map) and .LKM(LK8000 OpenStreetMap Data) files for use in the open source LK8000 Tactical Flight Computer software, which is used by many Aviation Soaring and General Aviation Pilots.
This is an initial re-release for beta testing. Please use the ISSUES tab to report any bugs that need squishing!
