m.nviz.image allows users to realistically render multiple
surfaces (raster data) in a 3D space, optionally using
thematic coloring, draping 2D
vector data over the surfaces,
displaying 3D vector data in the space, and visualization
of
volume data (3D raster data) from the command line.
Render elevation map in a 3D space.
