This is a topographical model I made of the Organ Mountains in Las Cruces, New Mexico using a website called terrain.party. I then took the "heat signature" images and imported them into Blender to form and refine the images into a 3D render. From there, I imported the Blender rendered model into Fusion 360 and added a base and cut the curved shape and put in the lettering on the bottom of the model.
This method does take a bit longer to do, but it makes topographical models look a whole lot better than other free methods. It also gives you the opportunity to customize your topographical models to a whole new level.
Here is the YouTube video I used to help me create this model:
