If you would have told us you wanted to compute and draw a terrain, we would 
have told you to use 2D triangulations.

There is even an example about the compuation of terrains, in CGAL. See:
http://www.cgal.org/Manual/last/doc_html/cgal_manual/Triangulation_2/Chapter_main.html#Subsection_33.5.2

It uses the traits class CGAL::Triangulation_euclidean_traits_xy_3<K> that 
applies 2D predicates on 3D points.
