Overview
map3d is a web app that generates a 3D map of real world places with buildings and roads, built with React Three Fiber. Map data comes from OpenStreetMap, and the result can be exported as a GLB file. The README suggests it can be a base for digital twins, drone surveying and GPS markers. It warns that accuracy is not guaranteed because OpenStreetMap height values may be missing or wrong.
Key features
- Creates 3D buildings and roads from OpenStreetMap data
- Exports the map as a GLB file
- Built with React Three Fiber
- Roadmap lists textures, height customization and heightmaps
Best for
Developers who want a quick 3D city model as GLB for visualization or as a starting point for digital twin work. Building heights depend on OpenStreetMap data quality.
