Right - although in my case, Mars. And 1/2 the radius, and I'm working
with a 30 degree dem. I really need to get it curved.
Interesting point about the stretch - for a read in DEM a conversion
would then not be required, although for a generated terrain it probably
would be.
So how do you make an accurate curve to a terrain?
