I am an amateur programmer, with emphasis on amateur and in the low Visual Basic (VB) league as such .. that doesn't prevent me from having a good time or creating something usefull. I started doing VB 20 years ago in the MS Office Excel attachment and is currently using a free version of Visual Studio 2010. The net.framework that spans the gab between coding-languages makes it difficult to take the final jump and become a 'real' programmer (in C# or C++).<br>

Don't acuse me for abusing an easy-to-use educational system 'cos I would not be able to defend myself. I succeeded in getting some 'fast and furious' graphics up and running a good year ago. It was a new and encouraging experience to get hold of USGS DEM-data and achually watch it in the program. Getting the higher resolution of the public aster-data has become a natural target, but getting to watch fast and furious DEM in the first place sort'a overextended my abilities. Getting to understand Tiff/geoTiff and how to approach it programmatically has become a priority.<br>
