3d-artists-handbook VS BlenderGIS

Thanks, I'll look through those links tomorrow. If you do come around to reading some parts don't forget to leave your thoughts here

I'm running Linux. I've already tried to run sudo apt -y install python3-numpy as suggested here and tried to install numpy using blender's python console and import pip pip.main.... it's saying everything is installed, but I still cannot enable addon either run import numpy in console. Please ask me if you need more technical details.

There's a GIS addon for the 3D suite Blender: https://github.com/domlysz/BlenderGIS It let's you import parts of Google maps and you may import buildings, roads, etc. as well.

In Blender, add the plugin "Blender GIS", which will give you an easy way to bring in terrain, aerial photos, etc. Import your DAE into Blender and have a look at "Import units" when importing. I still think you'll need to move the DAE model once it's in Blender to get it to match the terrain.

- Downloaded BlenderGIS (https://github.com/domlysz/BlenderGIS) which allows the import of georeferenced elevation data (geo TIF file). I also tried to import individual tree points with no luck.

I am trying to create a 3D relief on my geoTIFF map created in ArcGis. In Blender I am using a BlenderGIS plugin (https://github.com/domlysz/BlenderGIS)

You might try blendergis it’s free and it just might do what you need

I used Blender GIS to import real height data from Yosemite Valley. Unfortunately, the mesh did not have enough detail and was low resolution. Thus I've used it as a base mesh and sculpted most of the detail using rock brushes.
