Choose вЂњArc ASCII GridвЂќ from the drop down. Once you are satisfied with your selection, scroll down to data output formats. This is the only sure way to grab perfect square power of two data selection. In coordinates box, if you choose to do so, you can tick вЂњmanually enter selection coordinatesвЂќ box and then manually type in lat/lon coordinates. OpenTopography site limits digital elevation map downloads to 450,000 square kilometers (which is huge in arma3 terms).

Below you can see the data selection coordinates. Mouse cursor changes to a cross now and you can drag a box to select region. Once you have zoomed enough in to a smallish area, click вЂњselect a regionвЂќ button in left side of the globe map screen. Use mouse wheel (middle button) to zoom in / out of the globe map, LMB and drag to move the map. Now you should see world map with red boxes marking the areas for available data.

This is very good site to download elevation data, it has nice coverage and nice user interface. If someone has scientific facts about this please share.ДЄt the time of writing this page the best heightmap source is Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM GL1) Global 30m found from OpenTopography site or from global mapper online sources. Someone said that this is because satellite grabs the data, but if the beam (?) hits a city building, the elevation VALUE might be 10-30m higher than actual earth surface because beam returns from buildings roof instead of ground. Most likely you need to clean and smooth out these wild elevations in cities or other populated spaces. Please note that real world heightmap data in cities often have lot of bumps and odd elevations which make no sense. There is big difference between fictionally made terrain heightmaps and real world data, fictional may look cool but real world is the new hot thing for arma3 terrain community.
