      You need to displace a subdivided mesh so the image can act as the displacement map to raise and lower the mesh.

      Here's an example with only a single area acting as a displacement map. The mesh is at 0.7million vertices to get anything reasonable for presenting.

      I would think using this technique on the full resolution would require you traveling to CERN and making use of the Hadron Collider to run SU.

          In SU it becomes unusable at 0.5million vertices.

            Actually when I saved the file as a .skp it was 64mb in size.

            I imagine the full file would run into gigabytes.

                  I love it when you talk dirty.
