I have a file which defines the hight of a plane, i.e. a topograph image.
How can I make a 3D surface with such a file in PovRay? Modifying normal of
a plane doesn't seem very much like a real 3D surface to me. Thanks! -Xhlu

By "topographic image" do you mean "height_field"?

So have look at the height_field object in POV-Ray documentation
