[GRASS-user] Accentuating/adding topography to a raster image?

[Jonathan Greenberg]

My main problem is the dem and image are both about 1.5 gb each -- am I
likely to run into problems with this?  

Never played with nviz before, looks like I'll be trying it out tonight!

This is also automatically done in the GUI. Just put your shaded relief map
into the basemap field and your image into the drape map field.

Display and presto, you have a topographically shaded image.

You can also do this in nviz for an even more dramatic effect. Use a DEM
(not shaded relief) as a basemap/elevation map and use your image as a color
map for the topography.
