About this terrain model
Embossify Terra builds Devils Tower, Wyoming from real measured elevation, not an artist's guess. In the United States the heights come from the USGS 3D Elevation Program, mostly airborne laser scans that resolve every 1 to 10 meters.
The model covers a 2 by 2 kilometer square centered on 44.5902, -104.7146. It prints 150 mm (5.9 in) wide on a solid base, a scale of about 1:13,300. The heights are true to scale. The sea is flattened to zero, so land stands on a clean base.
