Modeling Cities on Accurate Terrain

I want to model buildings and situate them in topographically accurate terrain taken from a source file like DEMs (digital elevation maps) or something similar. Aside from the Sketch Up/ Google Earth option, what suggestions can you provide as to the best software to a) do the terrain, and b) do the models?

    to make land from images you'll need something that can displace geometry using an image map, max can do it, so can lightwave and, i expect everything else, it's not a new trick.

    as for the buildings, again most apps would be suitable, depends on what you're used to.
