Because for a layperson, an actual 3D map is much easier (and prettier) to read than a topo line map.
Literally none of these are "actual 3D maps," they are topo maps. The only additional information they provide is the 3D extension of objects that were already discoverable in 2D. "Can this map help me find the town hall of Whittier, Alaska?" If not, it isn't a 3D map.
For those who (like me) who didn't get the reference and were curious about this - the town appears to be mainly consolidated into a single 14-story building [0]

#94Might be cool, won't know, because of that full page "we are tracking you, do you consent, or do you want to go through a click adventure that'll probably take half an hour before we pretend that analytics and tracking cookies are essential site functionality and we refuse to give you the option to turn those off" notice. If you can't write your site code to do the right thing when DNT is turned on and without needin…
Or just don’t use it? These sorts of comments always ignore the bidirectional relationship between websites and web users. They don’t owe you anything, you’re just another customer with a choice to make.

im talking about making an (FOSS) alternative front end, to an ostensibly free service, that fixes the bugs for them. what the fuck are you on about?

#99And the practical application of data like these: https://prehrada.hrach.eu/en.html
This site is quintessential Czech humor, similar in spirit to recent Kralovec annexation and Jara Cimrman. Thank you for linking it here.

#100Awesome. Breathtaking. But the imagery isn't from satellite data, is it? Must be from airplanes.
Indeed, something like 25cm or better is typically shot from airplanes. I don't remember what the physical limit is for image quality given a reasonably sized spy satellite (iirc it's around the 20cm mark), but commercially at least, the high quality imagery is all airplanes. Governments often commission such planes to fly ~yearly at something like 10 cm, as well as commissioning height maps[1], but the very good stu…
Google Translate handles it just fine. Interesting!
