Wilbur- Clipped Mountain Tops

[Mistro]

Hi. I'm still new to Wilbur and ran across an issue when loading a greyscale heightmap. I grabbed an area of Halong Bay with Terrain Party to make a map for Cities Skylines. When I loaded it into Wilbur, the highest peaks are clipped as you can see in the top of the image below. What can I do to fix this?

Load the data as unsigned rather than signed.

as above
topo data is normally in 16 bit SIGNED LSB format with sealevel set to ZERO
-- but some is in 16 bit signed MSB !!! ( older apple ppc cpu's )

all intel X86 CPU's are LSB!!!!

so a 16 bit signed image has pixel values from -32767 to +32768
and a UNsigned image has values from 0 to +65536

a lot of image editors can find the min/max , for 16 bit data i like Nip2 ( been using it for almost 10 years so...)

it has built in MATH functions

find the min
then subtract the negative value

this moves the min. to 0

to normalize it

you then find the new MAX
divide by that value and then multiply that image by 65536

or use a comandline tool like Gmic

to normalize it and convert it to UNSIGNED

gmic inputSIGNED.tiff -n 0,65536 -o outputUNsigned.tiff,ushort
