After the World Map it was time to go Dutch. So I created a Lego 3D Heightmap of The Netherlands. The map is 80x96 studs and contains 1731 pieces. The last image is the source image for the height information and color codes.

Because a large part of Holland is below the sea level I wanted this to be represented in the design. The blue baseplate are the lowest area's below sea level (between 4 and 8 meters) and then the Dark Turquoise layer is still below sea level (-4 meters and above). Then green is sea level etc.

So in order to make Dark Turquoise lower than the sea level, the Black plates have a double layer to get the correct height. This can best be seen at the IJsselmeer and Flevoland.

I also made a 2D version.
