Digital elevation data retrieved from NY Orthos Online, tiled and converted to heightmap images with QGIS, and inefficiently converted to STL using my program hmstl. Terrain is clipped to the Binghamton city limits using a mask image derived from municipal boundaries provided by Broome County GIS.
The red version pictured above was printed in ABS on a library Makerbot 2X. I have since reprinted the model in unpigmented PLA on my Printrbot Simple. Here is a short video clip of adding some detail to the PLA version with acrylic paint: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhWAyQxnE68
