Fractional elevation sampling provides samplings to fractions of a meter vertically (e.g., 10.25m, 10.75m) compared to freeware mesh with only whole number samplings (e.g., 10m, 11m), which means smoother terrain on the ground and even smoother landings ; x) q# k" G1 r# Z9 t# X3 w$ Q' l 8 @) B' f/ P$ h# f
