This calendar week I was actually impressed amongst 2 maps which were inspired past times BERG's Here & There horizonless maps of Manhattan. The OSM Buildings GL Inception Map together with the Tangram Bendy Map both render a horizonless perspective for whatsoever place inwards the world.
In both maps nearby 3d buildings are shown from a outset somebody indicate of view. In the distance silent rise beyond & higher upwardly the foreground buildings the map of the balance of the metropolis bends towards the heavens.
I was besides impressed this calendar week amongst Dropchop, a browser based GIS built amongst Mapbox together with Turf.js. It allows yous to perform quite sophisticated spatial queries on mapped information without a server together with inwards your alternative of meshing browser.
Dropchop allows yous to upload information from your computer, from a URL or fifty-fifty from OpenStreetMap, using the Overpass API. The best agency to detect out what is possible amongst Dropchop is to play amongst it. If yous don't bring whatsoever map information to mitt thence yous tin purpose the in-built Overpass API sorcerer to catch closed to information from OpenStreetMap.
Once yous bring performed the required GIS operations on your mapped information yous tin thence download the results every moment a GeoJSON file or every moment a shapefile.
