I'm not sure but I seem to remember seeing a tutorial for transforming a height lines map into a 3D terrain in sketchup ... Maybe on youtube. That could get the job done.

There are ways! I did a ton of experiments for something similar a while back. I had a DEM file that needed importing in Sketchup, not the actual contour lines. I'm happy to say I actually posted the whole process I came up with! You'll need to download the freeware programme 3DEM, but no worries, it's 100% safe.

If you already have contour lines but no DEM file yet, it might just be a teeny bit easier to follow this tutorial. I never tried it, but it just might work. Let us know if it did, because I might wanna use it in the future!
