Somewhere in the process of producing this height map, clearly some
fractal generator was involved.

Excellent, pupil Clipka! :-)

I still have some ancient gif images made long ago when the Earth was 
still young. I do not remember what generator was involved; probably 
fractrace. I kept them for sentimental reasons.

Never heard of Fractrace.

Then again, I've never heard of anything other than Fractint anyway.

A fairly simple way to avoid most of those water cylinders sticking out 
of the landscape at the edge of ponds, especially if those landscapes 
are rugged, is too drastically lower the MaxPondTests parameter. In the 
attached image I used a value of 5, instead of 100 previously.

Are you making a script that can be applied to any heightmap/terrain 
generically? I would like to use it in one of my projects.
