3D Mapping Showcase

Posted by LordGarySugar on 28 July 2025 in English.

A collection/showcase of the different buildings and areas that I have mapped in 3D (through much trial and error). Each location has a link to view on OSM where you can see what building parts and tagging I’ve used to represent these buildings. The heights I have tagged on building parts are mainly calculated by working out the ratio of a building’s height and width in a photo (I used paint.net to measure these dimensions in pixels) and applying this to the width that can be measured from aerial imagery.
