What are 3D Maps?

3D Maps bring detailed geospatial data to life using the OGC 3D Tiles format. This open standard makes it possible to render detailed 3D Maps with a compatible renderer or an open-source library built for advanced geospatial visualization.

Why use 3D Maps

By leveraging Ola Maps’ 3D Maps, users can explore areas in a way that closely resembles the real world. This level of realism helps bridge the gap between raw data and practical understanding, making it easier to interpret complex spatial relationships and contextualize information. Some of the use-cases for 3D Maps can be:

Tourism and Virtual Exploration
Urban Planning and Development
Real Estate

How to integrate Ola Maps 3D Maps

You can integrate and directly use Ola Maps 3D Maps with the Ola Maps Web SDK, without the need to implement your own renderer. An example snippet is given for your reference.

If you want to use your own renderer, you can explore open-source 3D mapping libraries such as deck.gl and CesiumJs.
