Below is the map I was able to download and edit on Blender. Everything in this project went well (z-values, the code, getting the base map, etc), besides pin-pointing the x,y coordinates from lat,long coordinates. If that would have been possible, I then would have made each point into a half-sphere whose radius is proportional to its z-value (height=z-value). Then, I would have used a boolean function on Blender to make the resulting spheres into one object thus making the topographic map. Doing that would have probably been the easiest part of the project as I have used the Boolean function before. The one step in the middle rendered the entire project to be affected.
I would like to thank Pyry for helping me so much on this project. After taking this class, I learned how to code, how pictures and cameras work, Blender, what API's are and how to license and use them, and so much more. I have spent so many hours on this project and I will continue to until I can get this to work. I am going to continue attempting at making a model because I have always wanted to start a financial tech company that engineers financial products for markets like real estate.
