How can I import GIS data into a Unity Project?

Hi there. The only solution so far I stumpled upon is to go through Terragen and export your model from there. But the results speak for themself, its worth a try.

From terragen you can export a mesh and import it to Unity where you would create a Terrain from the imported mesh. You can find a script for that purpose in the wiki here

Ah and there is 3dnemo's tutorial for exactly that here.

Would be cool to have a GIS to Terrain Wizard, though. ;)

Hope that helps & bon voyage.

You can convert .DEM files from USGS into RAW files and import them into Unity as a heightmap. I have been using this method to create terrain of Northern Arizona for a driving game based on Route 66.

Hi there, I have not been able to export any models with using Terragen 2 :/ Is it because I am using the free version of Terragen? If anyone has an idea please let me know. Cheers

You could take a look at this answer: Import terrain from Google Earth, MS FlightSim, or USGS?

Hi there - I have written a tutorial about how to get a Digital Elevation Model from GIS into Unity3D using blender - http://www.dead-mens-eyes.org/embodied-gis-howto-part-1-loading-archaeological-landscapes-into-unity3d-via-blender/ - it might help a bit?
