This lecture explores the benefits of representing the third geographical dimension, focusing on producing realistic views. Different methods to represent relief in pseudo 3D are reviewed, followed by an explanation on creating a three-dimensional model using a digital land model. The Qgis2threejs plugin is demonstrated for creating 3D visualization models in QGIS, with examples from the Seychelles and Geneva.
