3D model of the African terrain was created in Cinema 4D R23 based on a high-polygonal STL model.
The elevation map has been enlarged by a factor of 10 so that the terrain doesn’t seem very flat. You can adjust the elevation to your liking.
UV-map in frontal projection was created for correct texture mapping. Textures can be edited in Photoshop and returned to Cinema 4D.
The built-in physical renderer in Cinema 4D was used to produce the images of Africa.
In addition, I can attach a map of heights, shape-files and various satellite textures.
Africa DEM

The elevation map is used to get information about low and high parts of the Africa relief.
Shapefile of Africa

The shapefile is used to cut the 3D map along the contour.
Satellite image of Africa

The satellite texture is high resolution in TIF format.
Have a Question?
Do you need Shapefile of Africa and regions?
Do you need more resolution satellite Africa images?
Do you need a 3D models of Africa in BLEND, OBJ or FBX format?
