Free of charge clutter now available in ICS tools

One general piece of advice for those who wants to build the clutter map out of OSM data.
If you use a medium DTM (say, 30/50/100 m), then better to avoid converting roads and other line vectors (probably) into clutter. Otherwise (most probably) you will get inappropriate clutter map since instead of building footprints, you'll get roads in the clutter map.

Regards, and enjoy using that functions of ICS Telecom!

You must have a Digital Terrain Model xxx.geo.
Create a new project with ICS Telecom.
Download the shape file from http://download.geofabrik.de/asia.html of the nation's Digital Terrain model and unzip to a directory.
In ICS Telecom Map Menu, Menu Rasteroperation, Menu Modify Raster Clutter from OSM Menu/CLC shapefiles , in this mode will open a new window and in this you'll see OSM folder location.
Points to the folder where you've put the shapefiles that you have downloaded.
Click on start and wait for ICS Telecom create clutter.
Clutter classes are those indicated in numbers in this window.
