Yesterday I was actually impressed alongside the edifice shadows used in Pints inwards the Sun. Pints inwards the Lord's Day allows you lot to search for nearby pubs in addition to sentiment where the surrounding edifice shadows volition autumn during whatever fourth dimension inwards the day.
With the evolution of WebGL, dynamic map shading in addition to moving shadows are becoming a characteristic of many interactive maps. The novel await Google Maps includes edifice shadows that reverberate the fourth dimension of the 24-hour interval when you lot sentiment the map. However Google Maps is non the exclusively map to characteristic dynamic edifice in addition to terrain shadows.
OSM Buildings is a pretty awesome JavaScript library for visualizing OpenStreetMaps edifice geometry on interactive maps. Check out this Building Shadows demo to sentiment an event map which includes 3d buildings in addition to edifice shadows which are theme on the appointment in addition to fourth dimension of day.
The map includes 2 slide controls to adapt the put of the Sun yesteryear the fourth dimension of 24-hour interval in addition to yesteryear the fourth dimension of the year.
F4map is an amazing 3d map built alongside OpenStreetMap data. The map includes unopen to incredible 3d buildings, 3d trees in addition to fifty-fifty the H2O is animated. The shadows on the map are inwards real-time in addition to reverberate the put of the Sun in addition to thus motility throughout the day.
My i user tip is to run the ctrl fundamental alongside the upwards in addition to downward arrow keys on your keyboard to alter the angle of the map.
The Shadow Visualization Demo is unopen to other impressive demonstration of using dynamic shadows on an interactive map. The map uses OpenStreetMap information alongside digital terrain model information from Kartverket to furnish a terrain map of Norway.
The map includes 2 slide controls which allows you lot to adapt the shadow positions in addition to lengths yesteryear fourth dimension of 24-hour interval in addition to yesteryear fourth dimension of year.
