If the units of canopy height are convertible to meters, you can
do the following:

- Load in your dataset.
- In the field selector, select the Formulas data source and
the System->Any Field field.
- Select the 3D Surface->Topography Display and click
the Create Display button.
- When prompted for the Field, select your canopy height parameter.
