I'm not sure about that, but if you want a high res map loaded in your model, you could just use a plane as the back ground, and then in the plane's properties, under the 'General' tab, you can set the texture of the plane. Then just size it to scale. If you have a high res map already, then this should work for giving you a background. You could also layer other planes with even higher res maps over the locations you need (such as the ship yard). </P> Tue, 20 Sep 2016 17:09:36 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/flexsim-forum/can-i-upload-a-high-resolution-satellite-world-map-into-flexsim/m-p/13522992#M33440 sam_stubbsYXX86 2016-09-20T17:09:36Z
