Abstract
This paper uses 3D printing technology to make a 3D model of a complex mountainous area vividly visible as a solid visualisation. Firstly, ArcGIS is used to produce a DEM (Digital Elevation Model) of the mountain area; secondly, 3dsmax is used to convert the model into a solid model and print the model layer by layer in conjunction with the reality; finally, the accuracy of the produced model is evaluated using the method of predicting the medium error. The results show that the visualisation of the digital elevation model was combined with 3D printing technology to produce a personalised and intuitive digital elevation model entity, further enhancing the in-depth application of 3D printing technology in 3D modelling.
