Source: GEBCO DEM, Sentinel-2 satellite imagery

Tools: Blender, QGIS, Global Mapper, Photoshop

Description: I combined sentinel-2 imagery with surface model data to cast light on it and create a pretty image that looks 3d. The map has lots of vertical exaggeration to bring out the topography, and I've coloured in the water, otherwise the image is a natural colour representation!

Very impressive, a truly beautiful rendition.

Can I ask - Is it expensive to buy the Sentinel-2 imagery?

You can download individual tiles for free but for large areas like this it would take quite some time to mosaic and clean seemlines. I purchases the eox cloudless dataset for the globe, it definitely wasn't cheap but I can map any area pretty quickly with it.
