Credits

Skeleton of the code is built on https://github.com/jackdbd/threejs-es6-webpack-starter project. I added some css for loading since reading geotiff files take time. If you have problems on build better to follow original instructions.

Demo of jonathanlurie and [mapmasters] (http://blog.mastermaps.com/2013/10/terrain-building-with-threejs.html) were realy helpfull to understand the logic of DEM to three.js convertion
