[GRASS-user] Importing DEM into 3D Studio MAX

[Benjamin Ducke]

Not sure about the image, but you could export
the DEM points or mesh as VTK, then use paraview to
export them to PLY.
Maybe 3DS can read that. If not, take a look at MeshLab
which will read PLY and offer more export formats.

Btw., a v.out.ply for GRASS would be great ;)
