Thats the map from the syrupleaf LP from Something Awful (I just re-read it recently).

I'm wondering because this would make finding a large mountain extremely easy.

You could also use it to find more adamantine space elevators.
But I couldn't have a clue what was used. If I had any clue on how DF maps work, I would take a shot at it, but I don't know the format for maps, so I can't.

Any 2d-3d heightmap script. There're a few for Corel Draw, and I am sure that there's a lot made by indie programmers.

Hmm, doesn't seem to show on the heightmap, I think that it's too thin.
