ORBX presented the next product on the series, which developer Jarrad Marshall described it as being the “most ambitious project to date” for the company.
The scenery will cover an area of over 212,000 square kilometers filled with orthoimagery and accurately placed autogen. Jarrad says the team had taken “special care and attention” towards “color correction, editing and balancing the orthoimagery to ensure the highest fidelity and quality”.

The team is also placing millions of trees throughout the entire region and “grouped together to create an immersive environment if you enjoy flying close to the ground. The vegetation has been hand-coloured to ensure it blends in perfectly with the ground textures”.
You can read the whole post where Jarrad gives you the full description (and more screenshots) of the project.
