New The 3D Maps Of The Week


This calendar week I was genuinely impressed amongst an interactive map from Dublin City Council commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Easter Rising.

The City together with the Rising features images, text together with videos that connect incidents together with events of the Easter Rising amongst locations across the city.This multi-media content is displayed on overstep of vintage map of Dublin.

My favorite business office of The City together with the Rising has to last the incredible 3d maps which you lot tin stance of a reveal of of import locations inwards Dublin. These 3d maps were made from archive photographs, maps together with documentary sources to recreate how Dublin genuinely looked inwards 1916.

Therefore amongst The City together with the Rising you lot tin non solely larn to a greater extent than close the events that took identify inwards together with unopen to Dublin's General Post Office (for example) you lot tin also explore the GPO together with O'Connell Street inwards 3d. In fact, if you lot convey an Oculus Rift headset, you lot tin stance the 3d scenes inwards virtual reality.


I was also impressed this calendar week amongst a 3d map of the London Marathon route, created yesteryear Emu Analytics, using Qgis2threejs together with edifice meridian & elevation data.

London Marathon 3D uses edifice meridian information derived from the Great Britain Environment Agency's LIDAR data. The 3d buildings handle you lot to navigate the road together with the terrain elevation layer gives you lot a expert thought of the few hills along the route. The elevation layer reveals how apartment the London Marathon road is, apart from the commencement of the race inwards Greenwich.

Emu Analytics warn that the map is a fleck of a browser killer. If your calculator is a piddling one-time you lot mightiness desire to stance this YouTube video of the map instead.


The Washington Post has been looking at the uneven recovery inwards the housing marketplace since its collapse inwards 2004 (this i patently isn't inwards 3D). What they convey industrial plant life is that although the marketplace has largely recovered it is the wealthy who are benefiting, piece poorer together with minority neighborhoods are lagging behind.

The Post's study America's Great Housing Divide is accompanied yesteryear an interactive map which allows you lot to encounter how belongings prices are doing inwards your area. If you lot come inwards a town lift or zip-code into the map you lot tin stance a choropleth map showing how homes inwards your neighborhoods convey changed inwards value since 2004.

If you lot click on the map you lot tin encounter the pct modify inwards value inwards homes inwards the zip-code area. You tin also stance a graph showing the ascent together with autumn of belongings prices inwards the expanse since 2004 compared to the ascent together with autumn of menage prices inwards the wider underground area.
