Grasshopper Terrain from Image

   This rendering  is the product of an exploration into image sampling and  surface mesh evaluation  in order to produce a quick and dirty terrain from an image.  The key here is that it’s fairly light and simple, so one could fill a folder with a bunch of similarly processed images of different terrain, and simply sample different images to quickly iterate different algorithms or approaches on different sites.
