Hi, I am having the same issue. The photogrammetry settings is set to on, but I find that it is only working in some areas and others have auto generated buildings. I prefer having the real satellite buildings, but I’m not getting it. Have you found a solution?

Try this: Turn off photogrammetry, save, exit the sim, start the sim again, turn on photogrammetry. Go to the world map and start a new flight.

Not all areas support photogrammetry data by the way, only several select cities.

I did some more research and learned that my problem is that it’s only in select cities. Is there a list or places that I can see that support photogrammetry?

Is it actually up to date cause there are not a lot pg cities and its from 2020.

Personally I think MS and Asobo aren’t doing themselves any favors by not publically releasing what cities have photogrammetry.

For the past 18 months I have been doing a USA tour covering EVERY city in EVERY state that has photogrammetry. It’s not something that can be done in a short time period :smiley:

There are multiple cities with photogrammetry not listed, however I have found that this website seems to include cities with photogrammetry where others do not-

Along my travels, I keep notes of my findings or things I find interesting. I also try to track what cities I discover that have photogrammetry that are not listed on the websites. There’s quite a lot. For example Idaho does not have any cities listed as having photogrammetry, but Caldwell, Nampa, Boise, Idaho all have photogrammetry.(I did a video fly over for each of these cities, trust me it’s verified)

West Palm Beach and Virginia Beach, Chapel Hill NC, Willamstown NJ, Cape Coral Florida, Buena Park California, St Paul Mn, all have photogrammetry but also are not listed. I have found that many smaller cities/suburbs of big cities where big cities have photogrammetry, the neighboring ones have it as well. Although sometimes, such as Williamstown NJ aren’t close to any other listed cities with photogrammetry, but Williamstown does in fact have PG.(I can’t recall how I discover this stuff, I just discover it, verify it, and document it to share all of my findings when I’m finally done)

I disagree with you when you say there are not a lot of cities with photogrammetry, but that’s subjective and I for one am not going to complain if they add more cities. Especially Dallas.

And why do some pois dont load like they should especially in italy the pois are ugly as hell! Also the pg doenst load like it would in nyc.
