Landscape models of geospatial regions provide an intuitive mechanism for exploring complex geospatial information. However, the methods currently used to create these scale models require a large amount of resources, which restricts the availability of these models to a limited number of popular public places, such as museums and airports.

Landscaper is a system for creating these physical models using an affordable 3D printer in order to make the creation of these models more widely accessible.
