[comp.sys.mac.misc] 3 dimension imaging

Hello, I have a question for anyone interested.  Has anyone tried to do
anything like the following - scan in a topographical map (USGS type)
image, then render it into a 3-D view of the terrain?  I heard about a new 
program called Contours - Pro that may do the rendering, but I'm not sure
what I should think about for a workable combination of software and
hardware to accomplish this task.  Or am I completely out in left field?
