Etm10m For Israel - Terrain Mesh
ETM10M FOR ISRAEL – TERRAIN MESH
Enhanced Terrain Mesh 10m for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024
Overview
This package delivers a high‑resolution 10‑meter terrain mesh for the entire territory of Israel, offering a dramatic improvement over the default MSFS2024 elevation data. Mountains, valleys, cliffs, wadis, and coastal formations gain accurate shape and depth, providing a far more immersive and realistic VFR experience.

Enhanced Terrain Mesh 10m for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024
Overview
This package delivers a high‑resolution 10‑meter terrain mesh for the entire territory of Israel, offering a dramatic improvement over the default MSFS2024 elevation data. Mountains, valleys, cliffs, wadis, and coastal formations gain accurate shape and depth, providing a far more immersive and realistic VFR experience.
Key Features
-
10‑meter (1/3 arc‑second) resolution mesh, based on Sentinel‑1 SAR data
-
Custom waterbody adaptation: lakes, shorelines, reservoirs, and coastal flats reshaped to match the new DEM
-
Helipad surfaces aligned to the 10‑meter grid
-
No LOD optimization required for this type of mesh
-
Zero performance impact thanks to efficient data processing
-
Optimized for VFR flying — best appreciated below 500 ft AGL
Technology & Data Sources
-
DEM/DTM: Sentinel‑1 SAR processed in SNAP13 for maximum accuracy
-
Mesh Technology: proprietary, developed in‑house
-
Hydrography adaptation: manual integration with MSFS2024 default water data
Why This Mesh
-
Significantly enhances the morphology of Israel’s terrain
-
Ideal for VFR, helicopter operations, bush flying, and training
-
Covers a region rarely improved by third‑party developers
-
Created by ItalianCharter Team – Gjanosh61, with over a decade of experience and thousands of downloads across the flight simulation community
Compatibility
-
Compatible with: MSFS 2024 only
-
Not compatible with MSFS 2020 (different SDK, different terrain system)
-
Works with all airport addons, photogrammetry, weather engines, and texture packs
Recommended Usage
For maximum visual fidelity, fly below 500 ft AGL, especially in mountainous and coastal regions.
Important Note for Best Terrain Quality
This verision has been fully tested on MSFS 2024 SU6 Beta v1. 8. 8. 0, and thanks to the latest improvements in my terrain‑mesh generation algorithm, the Old Terraforming Method is no longer required. ETM10m now works seamlessly with the new MSFS 2024 terrain renderer.
This update is part of my ongoing commitment to deliver the most accurate and realistic terrain mesh for Israel, crafted tile by tile with precision and passion.
For version 2. 3. 0, I manually corrected the DEM in QGIS, restoring the natural flatness of the Negev plateau and improving the terrain around key landmarks such as solar fields, roads and desert infrastructures.
