Our clients are quite impressed with this and I am soon going to develop a full fledged interface. After 3 days of work, I ended up creating a successful prototype of what I desired. I also did research on Ajax, Jquery and restful services pattern so that I could interact with server side. I started my research and was impressed with bing maps initially but as they revoked their 3D maps feature, I ended up using Google maps for my solution. For the last couple of days, I have been thinking of making a sophisticated dashboard with live maps (all 3D, 2D, street view), tracking live positions of the camera, streaming video on the side with a whole lot of other information and settings to customize the dashboard view. To access the view in Google Maps, click the “Earth” button on the bottom left, then click the tilt button below the compass on the right, to access the 3D view.ĬASA colleague Robin Edwards has blogged the update in more detail.I work for a company 'Momentum Technologies' in Australia which provides real time video streaming solutions. Check out all those turrets.įinally, here’s the Regent’s Park Mosque. Here’s the pseudo-gothic Cruciform building, part of University College London. What I particuarly like about this 3D representation is that the delicately curved building has been modelled well – at a glance, it looks like the model itself is using proper curves. The Google UK headquarters will, in a few years, be just to the left.
Here’s the newly extended King’s Cross station building in all its glory. There have been other 3D maps of London before – from Bing and Apple – but Google has taken time to produce a very impressive map where even individual trees look like – well, trees in 3D. Google yesterday released their 3D map for much of inner city London – roughly, most of Zones 1-2 and parts of Zone 3, now visible in Google Earth and on Google Maps (when you zoom right in.) They’ve had individual prominent buildings for a while, and much of the centre of London was also blanket-covered in 3D maps, but now a much larger area is covered.
