Tools/terrain_from_dem.py builds a 191x106 grid at 2 m over the block, Z being
NAVD88 minus the origin ground. Building footprints from the OSM extract are cut
out so rooftops never become terrain (72 footprints, 6310 cells). Spot checks
reproduce the measured profile: origin 0.00, Orange Dr +3.39, south gutter
+0.93, crown +1.38, north sidewalk +1.43.
Blosm projects with a sphere, not an ellipsoid, so its frame was ~0.4% oversized
and rotated by meridian convergence: about 2 m at the theatre. The blockout now
fits a six-parameter affine into EPSG:26911 on five control points (0.0 cm
residual) and transforms root objects only, since children inherit and double
transforming them read as a 2 m placement error.
