San Tan Regional Park 3d Map

San Tan Regional Park is a hiking/biking/horseback riding area near Phoenix Arizona.  I hike a fair amount there and thought it would be cool to make a 3D map of the park.  Fortunately, I found a wonderful project out of Iowa State University published on the web.  Click on the touchterrain link below, then click the map, search for a location, and set your parameters (each parameter is explained well with popups after hovering on the button).   An STL output file is generated for you to use.

I set the parameters according to the Prusa MK4, set a 2mm base thickness (it's solid),  and added a 2x vertical exaggeration to make it pop.   Once the file is generated you can preview in your browser, or save the zipped file.
