Geography in 3D perspective












2












$begingroup$


I would like to make map a GeoGraphics with GeoMarkers in the pseudo 3D perspective. For example, consider this plot of the Eiffel Tower:



enter image description here



I would like to reproduce it in a 3D perspective like this:



enter image description here



Both examples come from google maps, I’m not sure if this is possible in 11.3, but would love to know.

          You could use an orthographic with a custom centering:



          GeoGraphics[
          Entity["Building", "EiffelTower::5h9w8"],
          GeoProjection -> {"Orthographic", "Centering" -> GeoPosition[{-30.858`, 2.295`}]},
          GeoZoomLevel -> 18,
          GeoRange -> {{48.852`, 48.872`}, {2.2895`, 2.2995`}}
          ]




          Note that this does incorporate the curvature of the earth and will be noticeable over larger areas.



          If you're after something flat, you could always inset the tiles in 3D and pick custom View* values. Note I pad the range to allow the map to be seen at an angle:



          im = GeoImage[
          Entity["Building", "EiffelTower::5h9w8"],
          "StreetMapNoLabels",
          GeoZoomLevel -> 17,
          GeoRange -> {{48.852`, 48.872`}, {2.285`, 2.305`}}
          ];

          {x, y} = ImageDimensions[im];

          Graphics3D[
          {Texture[im], EdgeForm, Polygon[{{0, 0, 0}, {x, 0, 0}, {x, y, 0}, {0, y, 0}},
          VertexTextureCoordinates -> {{0, 0}, {1, 0}, {1, 1}, {0, 1}}]},
          Background -> Black,
          Boxed -> False,
          Lighting -> "Neutral",
          ViewAngle -> 0.03233723833101999`,
          ViewCenter -> {{0.5`, 0.5`, 0.5`}, {1.4456583184354543`, 0.7806170277104297`}},
          ViewPoint -> {1.076788325190908`, -3.1635309749673284`, 0.5316001064285271`},
          ViewVertical -> {0.00011882147473772082`, -0.00015290540260965785`, 0.9999999812506973`}
