MSFS Worms City Scenery

Embark on a visually stunning journey with the Worms City, Germany Scenery, a meticulously crafted add-on for Microsoft Flight Simulator. This freeware mod is a tribute to Worms, a city rich in historical and cultural significance, nestled in the heart of Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany.

Overview

Worms, renowned for its profound historical roots dating back to pre-Roman times, is presented with remarkable accuracy and detail in this scenery. The city, once the seat of the Burgundian Kingdom and a pivotal location in the Nibelungenlied saga, is recreated to reflect its historical and modern-day significance.

• Geographic Precision: Situated on the Upper Rhine, the scenery replicates the city's coordinates (49° 37? 55? N, 8° 21? 55? E) with precision, ensuring an authentic navigational experience.
• Cultural Landmarks: Key historical sites, including the Worms Cathedral, a prime example of Romanesque architecture, and the city's notable ShUM sites, are intricately modeled.
• Industrial and Urban Elements: Reflecting Worms' contemporary landscape, the scenery includes industrial areas and the characteristic urban sprawl, alongside the famous vineyards producing Liebfraumilch wine.

Technical Details

The add-on employs advanced photogrammetry techniques to deliver an immersive, true-to-life depiction of Worms. Photogrammetry in MSFS involves utilizing real-world photographic data to create three-dimensional representations of structures and landscapes. This process ensures a high level of detail and realism, enhancing the simulation experience for both casual flyers and seasoned aviators.

• Data Sources: The mod utilizes high-quality data extracted from Google Maps, ensuring a realistic representation of the city's topography and architectural features.
• Enhanced Elevation Data: Version 1.1 of the add-on addresses and corrects elevation data around the airport area, offering an improved flight experience.
