from heightmap to blender scene?

I’ve been looking for a thread or tutorial, but all I could find is how to convert terragun maps.
I have a grayscale height-map. (a .png image).
I want to insert it into blender and create a 3D terrain from that heightmap.
is it possible?
whank you :slight_smile:

A quick google search of blender heightmap comes up with these and I’m sure there are many more examples if you do a search in the forums.
