How Big Is The Skydome?

Toronto's SkyDome stadium overlaid on Central Park

Mapto has developed a corking means to present the comparative size of a edifice past times overlaying its 3D model on piece of occupation past times of an interactive map. The map allows y'all to house the 3D model on whatsoever location inwards the world, allowing the user to persuasion the edifice inwards relation to a familiar location.

In the Mapto example, SkyDome Map, y'all tin persuasion a 3D model of Toronto's SkyDome stadium in addition to motility it to whatsoever location inwards the world. The map includes a release of quick links that present the stadium overlaid on iv other well-known Toronto locations. You tin too click on the 'Move SkyDome' push clit to motility the model of the SkyDome to a location of your ain choice.

Mapto's map was developed from Andrew Harvey's Add a 3D Model to a Mapbox GL Map. Both Mapto in addition to Andrew role Mapbox GL, which allows y'all to contention the map persuasion in addition to explore the 3D model from unlike angles. Something which y'all wouldn't endure able to create amongst a traditional top-down interactive map view.

The 3D model inwards Andrew's map uses the glTF file format for 3D scenes in addition to models. This is a good used format in addition to in that location are enough of freely available glTF files of 3D models on the internet. If y'all desire to experiment amongst adding other 3D models to Mapbox GL thus y'all are spoiled for selection of create made 3D objects (for event seek Sketchfab).
