3D Map Holographic Display

Example of a world's topography "holographic" map based on a virtual screen. This holographic map is a 3D representation of the global terrain and elevations. The data used for this map comes from Mapzen, but it could also be sourced from other elevation data providers.

The map is hosted on an interactive display surface that tracks your inputs. Here's how to navigate the map:

• Dragging the Map: Click and hold the left mouse button to drag the map.
• Rotating the Map: Click and hold the right mouse button to rotate the map.
• Zooming: Use the mouse wheel to zoom in and out when the pointer is over the map.

Tiles are loaded dynamically during these navigation actions to ensure a smooth and seamless experience.

Note: The data are raw and unfiltered, so altitude artifacts in remote places are common due to lack of usage; this is not a bug. One strategy is to filter the elevation matrix using a filter such as a Median Filter, but in practice, the usage on the client side can be a bit heavy.
