Tangram Patterns is an pump dazzling demonstration of a Tangram vector map incorporating patterns from texture.js.
Mapzen's Tangram mapping platform is a library for creating 2D & 3D maps using WebGL. Tangram Patterns uses Textures.js, a d3.js based library for creating SVG patterns, amongst the Tagram map library. The SVG patterns created yesteryear Textures.js are designed to live used inward information visualizations.
The consequence isn't just slow on the eyes when y'all apply then many of the textures on 1 map similar this. Hopefully if y'all e'er practise a mapped visualization of your information using Textures.js y'all volition live a fiddling to a greater extent than selective inward the selection too publish of patterns.
Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 publish of other slap-up experimental maps convey been created amongst Tangram. This Day / Night Map shows how colors too edifice footprints tin live updated inward real-time inward the browser. The Tron Map shows how y'all tin apply animation to map tiles (in this example to practise the consequence of moving vehicles on roads too streets).
My favorite fashion then far is this Cross Hatch map (pictured). I'm every bit good rather fond of the Lego Style map, made out of colored plastic brick textures. When panning roughly on these maps disclose how the perspective on the 3d buildings changes amongst your signal of view.
