Explore and master another dimension.

Spatial information that is inherently 3D, such as buildings, topography, and subsurface geology, should be displayed in a way that is both intuitive and measurable—in three dimensions! Representing data in 3D lets you investigate complex spatial relationships in new ways, identifying patterns and potential problems more effectively.

Mapping with Altitude: Designing 3D Maps helps you deliver clear, compelling cartographic representations in 3D that are both eye-catching and informative. Learn 3D concepts such as surfaces, base heights, texturing, and lighting model. Discover new twists on well-defined 2D cartographic principles, such as size, color, and text. Understand how the z-dimension can convey time. Then choose the best delivery mechanism for your 3D content.

Mapping with Altitude focuses on the decisions you’ll make and the specific techniques you can use as you delve into the world of 3D map authoring.



Use Mapping with Altitude: Designing 3D Maps to help you deliver clear, compelling cartographic representations in 3D that are both eye-catching and informative.
