How this works
When you hit print below a new window will open containing a large (Width*Pixels Per Inch) by (Height * Pixels Per Inch)
pixel map showing the area shown in the left map padded as needed to fit the dimensions you specify above and
at the best resolution possible.
Use the print dialog to print this map at the proper scale. You may have to play with these values and use print preview to find what that works with your setup. Borderless high quality prints are possible using Google Chrome and the system print dialog.
Warning: calculated values and the data they are derived from are often inacurate and should not be relied on as a sole source of information for travel in avalanche terrain or any critical application.
Highlight slopes steeper then °
Calculate using meter grid.
Note: Values less then 30° and 40 meters will show a high degree of contour line artifacting due to the 20 meter vertical resolution of the 8-bit data format.
