== Overview ==

The purpose of this RFC is to allow !MapGuide to stylize the elevation data, which configured surface style in its layer definition.

== Motivation ==


||[[Image(After.JPG, align=center)]]|| instead of ||[[Image(Before.JPG, align=center)]]||
||Figure1|| ||Figure2||

== Proposed Solution ==

Modify Stylization project to support the stylization of the elevation data, with surface style. New classes will be introduced to handle those style information, such as color, band, surface, hillshade and etc.

== Implications ==

This RFC does not describe any GUI modifications and does not affect the existed published API.

== Test Plan ==

After publishing a elevation data from Map 3D to !MapGuide server, the elevation image should display as it was shown in Map 3D.
