btw, the Swiss Federal Office of Topography (Swisstopo) has lots of cool open geo data: https://www.swisstopo.admin.ch/en/maps
> New conditions of use apply to swisstopo's official geodata.
> The geodata may be used free of charge, in particular also for commercial purposes.
> Reference to the source when publishing the data is the only condition.
> Authorizations and licenses are therefore no longer required.
This is based on a change in federal law that happened on 1 March 2021.One of the (IMHO) most interesting datasets is the extremely detailed digital elevation model / DSM (swissSURFACE3D):
https://www.swisstopo.admin.ch/en/height-model-swisssurface3...
Lidar scanned terrain model, with a grid size of 0.5m and vertical resolution of ~10cm. Available as a tiled raster or the "raw" classified point cloud (ground, vegetation, water, ...).

Demo (Shaded Relief based on that surface model. Those stair step patterns are not artifacts, but the natural terracing of vineyards):
