Source: GEBCO DEM, Sentinel-2 satellite imagery

Tools: Blender, QGIS, Global Mapper, Photoshop

Description: I combined sentinel-2 imagery with surface model data to cast light on it and create a pretty image that looks 3d. The map has lots of vertical exaggeration to bring out the topography, and I've coloured in the water, otherwise the image is a natural colour representation! Check out other examples on my instagram

Excellent work. Tell me, which Reddit should I join if I wanna see more of these types of maps and get info on how to make them? I’m trying to create a beautiful user experience with custom maps in Mapbox for iOS but it needs to be real-time rendering and have been experimenting with QGIS over the past for days with data from GEBCO.

I would be curious whether the Mediterranean Sea is still obviously visible without the coloring

Greece and Italy would be pretty difficult recognize, but otherwise I think it'd still be pretty obvious as it sits between two continents. I'd love to see a map like that one day though.

Wow, that's quite a steep fall off of east Sicily.

Do you have such a type of map (non-red) of Austria?
