Maybe currently smart 3D modeling aren't available in somewhere (like Iran for example) but by improving artificial intelligence and more data one day they will. So there is no tool for users to create 3D models and upload them to Google Maps or Google Earth. These days system gathers needed information and images from many resources like satellite, aerial photography, photos from users, street view photography and many others to generate 3D models of buildings, trees and even cars! Also system doing same for showing simple models of buildings on Google Maps. A 2D icon will also appear on the top right corner of your screen. Pinch to zoom in until you see a 2D outline of the place. Follow these steps to switch to 3D view: Open Apple Maps to one of the ten cities mentioned above. Even we missed the tool for creating flat polygons!Īfter that (and also simultaneously in labs) Google focused on smart modeling the world. Enabling the 3D maps feature is as easy as a single tap. Several years ago when Sketchup was still for Google, we had this ability to create 3D models and submit them for public visibility on Google Earth as dear Also in Map Maker we had some basic tools to create simple 3D models of buildings but both retired years ago. The interactive 3D web app was built using the ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript.
