Remember I need the data as a heightmap. RAW is the file format.


I would also suggest using a terrain generator, perlin noise, or  
something that creates realistic landscapes, and combining that with a  
painting of the actual terrain. Hand-drawn terrain is usually too  
"perfect" to appear convincing.


Making terrain is a challenging thing - but very rewarding once you've  
got it figured out.
