    I recommend decimating your input significantly and then start doing stuff. If you look at the thumbnail for your input, it doesn't show any terracing. That's because the generator that you're using provides what amounts to a fixed-size sample, just not aligned to a grid. Wilbur is a raster tool, so reducing the input to about what Wilbur expects and starting from there is probably your best bet for good results.

    https://www.cartographersguild.com/s...ad.php?t=29412 has some good descriptions of using Wilbur. The CSU Johnsondale link might be useful.
    https://www.cartographersguild.com/s...ad.php?t=32916 shows beating up a map from Michel Beaulieu with Wilbur until stuff oozes out. I need to stop abusing new members, I think, because they don't seem to come back after that.
    https://www.cartographersguild.com/s...ad.php?t=33087 has some good examples of starting from a hand-drawn contour map and then I started thwacking mbartlesm's map with Wilbur starting on page 2.
