algorithmic modeling for Rhino
This is the first release of an add-on which enables the import of GIS data from various sources into the Rhino/Grasshopper environment, located, scaled and cropped based on an Earth Anchor Point and a clipping polygon. Sources of GIS data include Shapefiles, USGS IMG/HGT Elevation files and ArcGIS REST Services over the web.
The add-on includes eight components in two categories:
GIS REST
GIS Tools
Special thanks go to the vibrant GH community, the masterful guidance of Andrew Heumann and endless patience of George Waters.

Many shapefiles I find myself using come from local municipalities like counties or cities that maintain their own GIS websites (i.e. data.sfgov.org), so I would also try searching Google for the area of interest and "GIS" or "shapefile".
Where i can get a catalog of basemaps and shapefiles?
Thanks for responding so quickly !
Some of the data from those website comes in GeoTiff format, which is also an acceptable format for the Import Topo component.
There are from USGS:
or from NASA:

Note, some of the data can be spotty (see http://www.viewfinderpanoramas.org/dem3.html#hgt).
Do you know if there is a USGS IMG/HGT Elevation files in Europe or it's just for the US ?
