Instructions:

1. Choose a location and a zoom factor (the Webots terrain will have the same dimensions and zoom as the displayed map)
2. Choose a map type: Map | Satellite | Hybrid
3. Choose a WebService for finding elevation data (horizontal resolution: astergdem=~30 meters, srtm3=~90 meters, gtopo30=~1000 meters)
4. Choose the number of horizontal/vertical tile divisions, e.g. if you choose 3 divisions you will have 9 tiles and 16 points
5. Hit the Generate button and wait while the elevation data is read from http://www.geonames.org
6. When the process finishes, copy and paste the generated world into a .wbt file that should be stored in a Webots worlds directory
7. Save the staticmap.png link into worlds/textures/staticmap.png
8. Open the .wbt file with Webots
