The villages rivers and roads can be draped over either background, and then draped over the 3D elevation model

Sounds ok with me...

. What monitor resolution do you normally use?

Don't know...

5. Do you have access to an image browsing program that allows you to pan and zoom?

No.

6. Does your internat connection make it reasonably efficient to download maps up to 1.5 megabytes in size? If not, what size are you comfortable with?

I'm on a dial up...

Exactly how you do this depends on which version of windows you are running, but in Win98 you can right click in the clear area of the desktop, then click on "Properties" and then click on "Settings" to find out. The resolution will be in the area marked "Screen Area" and will probably be either 800x600, 1024x768, or 1600x1280.

Again depending on your operating system, you can open Windows Imaging, Start>Programs>Accessories>Imaging to get some rudimentary image browsing capabilities, such as pan and zoom.

Files up to 500k will come across a 56k dialup connection in a couple minutes, so I'll try to keep them smaller than that.

Thanks for the input.
