DEM data noisy

Hello,

It’s not a bug report but help is wanted.
Whatever DEM data I download from websites such as earth explorer are viewed very noisy inside world machine though it’s 16 bit.
Is there something I’m missing?

Thank you.

I there,

My hunch is that what’s happening is that your real world terrain actually spans a much larger horizontal area than the file input device is set to. This steepens the slopes, and produces high frequency “noise” that is actually just the terrain data bunched tightly together.

Try setting the horizontal expanse to the same scale as your input terrain and see if that doesn’t fix things.
