Did fly over Germany and Slovenia and did not notice any issues with rivers, canals or lakes.
I'm very happy to see the smaller lakes now for VFR navigation. X-Plane had them for years already.
I suggest to add e010n40 to install/Europe.
Swamps and salines currently look like lakes - I sugesst to use a different material for swamps in future versions.

Okay, one last question (and this will seal the deal as to if I'm downloading this tonight - and sorry for all the pestering):
Does terragit have the airport ULDR (Rogachevo)? It's not in terrasync, but it looks like the layout exists in x-plane.
ninja edit: this may not be in terragit's realm, but what about Russian RSBN and PRMG navaids? Could those be added too? According to
this, there's a Tu-154b with a list of RSBN stations that could be added (not sure if these are already in FG but I don't think they are).
edit 2: And more than just Pyongyang in North Korea?

e010n40 -- will do
(I am surprised if I didnt already)
1. Great to know germany and Slovenia look good.
2. Wilco-nsider different material for swamps -- If I can figure out how to classify these appart of other water sources
I agree, I am doing some VFRs and its fantastic

MAP:
http://x-plane.cleverest.eu/According to this map, the new terraGIT content also has:
XZK02 (non ICAO code) and ZKHM
I am working into adding a NavData directory to terraGIT. From 2016.4 beyond this will allow matching the apt.dat used to construct terrain with the apt.dat loaded by the program.
Maybe this is completed on 1 or 2 weeks.
The thing is the apt.dat globally is massive, so I created a couple of python scripts to effectively split this file into chunks, that FG2016.4 shall be able to load.
See the current build here
https://github.com/FGDATA/NavaidsIf you feel experimental, copying the directory NavData into your terraGIT could make the magic,
eventually I'll push this as a submodule, so one can update or not to carry a terraGIT alternative Navaid Set.

In Piran, Slovenia I noticed an area of "mixed crop" land where OSM and real life have the mediterrain sea.
E13.57514911 N45.52912760
the same in Trieste: a cruise ship on land
E13.73211709 N45.55044326
Scenery 2.0 does not have that, so I wonder what's the source of those polygons.

more feedback:
there's a big river "Lena" next to UEEE.
In scenery 2.3 it is default/forest instead of water.
there's a long terrain edge (elevation:0) near EDLS
GCLP: wrong elevation=0, correct: 24m
My project3000 objects at GCLP were at 0m , too ...hmm...
Today I ran fgelev for the project3000 objects and it worked fine.

north of KSLC I noticed some "monster waves" on the water. Scenery 2.0 does not have them.
lake alt: 1278m
waves alt: 1670m

Now this is an intriguing report
Thanks for all the testing. Very useful for when I set up Scenery V2.5

I see your reported locations to be all over the world... are you rastering globally? WOW
