>>topos at Tech… Probably the best way to use topography is to buy some of the professional tools out there, but that's often hard for a school. Do you know about 3DSURF? (about $150 from Schreiber) Not in the same class as other tools, but it will at least let you make accurate terrain models from coordinate data. (You may have to manually build a coordinate file from the topos) Also, the Yost Displace and the shareware GIFDXF will let you build usable terrain, althought not quite as precisely. JKJ
