BOTH tools look great to me. And even though one is 'free', there's nothing saying you can't support a tool that is normally no cost to use. In fact I like supporting this type of site even more.
Great video, thank you for sharing. Would it be possible to print the same area but in multiple sections to make a larger finished model? Something about 600mm x 600mm!
Awesome video, may I ask which 3D printer model you used? could this be done with a 3D model created from fotogrammetry (Drone aerial images). How much would you sell does models for?
I use a Prusa i3 Mk3 printer. I have never done fotogrammetry I guess in theory it could be done, but its simple enough to get detailed elevation information off the internet. As for how much to sell them... I have no clue what folks would pay for 3D printed maps
Fantastic video. Very neat. Is there a 3d printer capable of printing a larger size? I am a geologist and would love to create some 3d topographic maps. Thanks!
For enough $$ you can get some very big 3D printers or some people even build their own 3D Printer. If you are new to 3D printing I would recommend buying a Prusa mini www.prusa3d.com/category/original-prusa-mini/ Print a few things and get a feel for what is all about. Then hit up a few youtubers like 3Dprinting nerd and see what is available for a bigger size.
I do not take on projects myself. There are lots of places out there where you can get something printed for $$. I have not used any of them so I do not have an informed recommendation. Also a lot of local libraries now have 3D printers so there is a good chance you can get them to print it there for free .... or near free
You can make a custom version pretty easily at toporama.co. It uploads the model to Shapeways where you can have it printed and shipped within a week or so.
Thanks for the links...you should checkout 3DP Iceland RUclips channel he prints lot of topographic parts. He prints them on the side to get most resolution as possible.
I had to watch one of his videos ruclips.net/video/PzAPL8HqHCo/видео.html and think about it. It makes sense now... If you don't want the topo look and want it smoother it would turn out better if you print it on the side Thanks for the info, that was pretty cool.
Gatac has some awesome designs, I absolutely love the almost marble like panels on the suyulen

Very helpful tutorial, Thanks!
What are the dimensions of those prints? Sorry if I missed you already saying it in the video
This was a great video. Thanks
Thank you for the video. Very informative. I'm gonna try to do this
Are this topografic stl only for USA? I live in Chile. Does it work outside USA?
Thanks for sharing!
tried out the trerrainator and its quoting 30 bucks.. howd you get yours for 7?!
Great video, thank you for sharing. Would it be possible to print the same area but in multiple sections to make a larger finished model? Something about 600mm x 600mm!
I want to print on specific boundaries not in rectangle shape kindly share your experience regarding to this
Great video! Thanks for sharing.
Glad you liked it
COOL! Thank you.
Don`t no Why, but it's not generating a good resolution to me.

Thanks a lot for the reply, cheers from México.

@@iqless Thanks for getting back to me. I will check out the Prusa Mini. I really enjoyed your video!
Is it possible to use color printer
Great! what material did you use for Topographical Maps in this video, many thanks.
I was using hatchbox PLA white for this one
Do you take on projects for other people? I'd love to have a 3D printed topo of where I live, such a great idea!
