I think at some point I will, but this is a task that takes multiple overlapping fields of expertise - from simulations to 3D rendering. I'll teach myself over time. I build little procedural generation experiments for fun that make their way into my books. But this is one of those dreams that will take me a couple of years to get to the level where I'm competent enough to go for it.

Is it necessary to work in 3D initially? You can make the problem a lot easier when working in 2D.

Goal here was to build a visualization and communication tool; 3D is an essential component of that. For 2D, land use maps already exist.
