This isn't about making a terrain in Houdini, but importing a terrain (heightfield map) exported from World Machine into Houdini

Thanks. I have added the HeightField File SOP, loaded the file but all I see is a flat grid.

Make sure your size parameter field matches the size of the longest side of your terrain (in meters).

Thanks. I've changed the size parameter but the grid is still flat.
The original terrain from World Machine is 8km by 8km, so I put 8000. No change.

It's almost funny I actually was looking for the same thing.
Thanks for the solution!
