How to create custom Stellarium landscapes

Описание: UPDATE: The Streetview app no longer is available. Please let me know if you know of an easy and free 360 panorama app (both iOS and Android).

Have you ever wanted to plan a session using Stellarium, but upon trying to catch your picked target discovered that it hid behind a house, or that single tree in your garden? Then this is the YouTube video that will help you solve this issue.

I'll explain how you can create your own custom background of your observation location. See an accurately simulated view of the nights sky in Stellarium. See when your favorite objects show themselves best and when they decide to hide behind obstacles on your horizon.

What I skipped explaining in the video is how to get the landscape.ini file. What I did was copy one from the existing landscapes. There are very complex ones and simple ones, so choose wisely ;-)
