3D MapView

View 3D maps directly in your browser!

The myVR 3D MapView client allows you to integrate powerful real time photorealistic 3D Map viewing technology directly with your existing online 2D map services in any Internet Browser. Using myVR Software's patented distribution and real time 3D viewing technology you can now easily add viewing of large scale 3D city models to your web site or service. Furthermore, these very large 3D city models can then be easily integrated with existing 2D aerial/orthophoto imagery that combined with elevation data allows us to automatically generate highly accurate 3D maps.

The 3D MapView client is available as a highly optimized and lightweight ActiveX Control / NPAPI plug-in and supports a wide variety of Internet Browsers. From a integration/development viewpoint the viewing client is fully configurable/customizable though XML and Javascript. All integration aspects such as UI branding/controls, navigation, camera views, overlay support and more is easily changable.

Key Features of myVR 3D MapView:
