Map making questions

If that is so why does it say in ClockWatchers Microdem tutorial that you can set the size later in Gimp?

Quote:Remember that for map_h and map_T we set the map size to 1 pixel = 200m because this is what
IL2 uses. But for map_C, IL2 uses 1 pixel = 50m. It also uses RGB = 0 for water, RGB = 255 is
land and the greyscales in between are shallow water/smooth shorelines.
Method 1, set the mapsize in MicroDEM to 1 pixel = 50m, but you wil have to Blur the edges in
Gimp or a similar picture manipulation program to get nice water edges.
Method 2, set MicroDEM to 1 pixel = 200m and scale the image up in you picture program. In
Gimp this will automatically give a greyscale/antialaised edge to the map_C
.

Does this mean I should just double the resolution of the map_c file then?
