" On a Nova program on TV a few weeks ago I saw a computer
" generated movie of a tour of the LA basin.  It gave the
" impression of a ride in a 1,000 mph helicopter.  Again, the
" terrain model was Landsat computed from a Landsat image.

"L.A. The Movie"  Kobrick et al, 1987.
The Landsat data was combined with known elevation
data to produce a 3-D model, which was then
manipulated with conventional techniques.
