So now it’s back and I’m back, and I’ve got everything working again, and also a new 3dSkiMaps mobile web app.

I included the Bowl, even though it isn’t really part of the ski base. But I’ll bet they have some way to get you up there.

Meanwhile, I’m working on Les Trois Vallées, France.

The elevation data is pretty bad, though, I guess it’s on 30 meter postings, so you can see the pixels. I recently did Zermatt, Switzerland, and I didn’t check but it must have been on 15 or 20 meter postings, because it was finer than Iran, but not as good as the US.

Since I figured out the bug preventing resorts outside the US and Canada from showing up correctly, I redid the ordering so now North America comes up first, and then the rest of the world. For the Summer I’ll make it where the Southern Hemisphere takes precedence. Might have to do some kind of preferences cookie, too.

I looked into importing posts from the old forum, but it was going to take more time that I felt it was worth.

Also, I fixed a long standing bug I didn’t even knew existed. I’ve been grouping all North American resorts into one top level category, but for those outside of this area I put them into their own country, and then select by name. When I went to a URL redirection scheme over the Summer, I didn’t take the extra level into account so none of the non-North American areas would have been available, if I had made them available outside of the Google Earth Plugin page. Since I wasn’t doing that, I never knew I had the bug.
